Johnston Terrace forms part of Thomas Hamilton's plan for a new western approach to Edinburgh. The plan was authorised by parliament in 1827 and Johnston Terrace, then referred to as the New West Approach, was opened in the mid 1830's. Its name was changed in 1850 in honour of Sir William Johnston, Lord Provost of Edinburgh 1848-51.
