The Nicoll St premises were destroyed by a fire in 1963, and the Company continued to perform in the Palace Theatre and Camperdown Park during the summer, before moving to a church building on Lochee Road. This served as the theatre's home until the new Dundee Rep Theatre was opened in 1982. Work on this modern theatre began in January 1979 on land donated by the University of Dundee, raising over £200, 000 through a public appeal to finish the building.
Dundee Rep Ensemble was established in 1999 and is the only permanent full-time company of actors in Scotland. Dundee Rep is also home to The Scottish Dance Theatre and both companies work with communities in Dundee and across the region

The Society and the University of Dundee have maintained close links: its meetings are normally held on University premises, while many members and office-holders have been University staff, including several presidents. The Society's original remit has been implemented through talks and lectures, excursions and annual publications, and with other agencies, it has also lobbied for the preservation of local historical buildings. It was instrumental in the creation of Dundee Heritage Trust. The Society also takes part in the Dundee Afternoon Lecture Series, which is run jointly by the Dundee Centre of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society, the Dundee Members' Group of the National Trust for Scotland, the Dundee Naturalists' Society and the Abertay Historical Society. While based in Dundee, the Society also organises events in other parts of the Abertay area.
The Archaeological Section of the Society was originally started as a semi-independent division of the Society, organising local excavations, and its own series of meetings, but from 1993, it was decided that the Council would oversee the running of the Section. The mid-1990s also saw the end of members excursions. For a brief period in the early 1970s, there was also an Industrial Archaeology Section, mainly concerned with recording the local industrial heritage. The archaeological work carried out by the Society has, since 2015, been organised by its Fieldwork Division.
Since 1953, the Society has produced publications, usually on an annual basis, with the majority written by members.

The Club was formed in January 1927 at a meeting at Mathers Hotel, Dundee. Twelve members attended the first meet in Glen Clova, climbing a snow gully on Mayar. Membership has steadily increased and as of 2018 the Club had over 200 members.
Members of the Club are elected and must be over the age of 18. The Club owns two properties for use by its members - Inbhirfhaolain, a climbing hut in Glen Etive, which was acquired in 1961, and a cottage in Torridon acquired in 1984. On 14 February 1988, a coach dropping members off at a meet was hit by another coach near Tyndrum, resulting in the death of the Club Secretary, Elizabeth Stenhouse, and serious injuries to other members.
At a committee meeting in 1929 it was decided that the club should form a library and appoint an officer to take charge of it. Eric Maxwell was appointed and continued as librarian until 1970. The library opened in 1929 with a mere 4 books, which had increased to 22 by the end of the year. The librarian was also responsible for the lantern slide collection. Today, the club is managed by up to eight office-bearers and five Ordinary Members. The office-bearers include an Honorary President, President, Vice-President, Honorary Secretary, Honorary Treasurer, Honorary Meet Secretary, Honorary Librarian (in conjunction with another post), Honorary Editor, and Hut Custodian.

Dundee Royal Infirmary had its origins in the Voluntary Dispensary founded in the city by public subscription in 1782. This proved so beneficial to the community that in 1793 Dr. Small proposed that an Infirmary for indoor patients should be founded. His proposal was realised in 1798, when the first 56-bed Dundee Infirmary was erected at King Street. Only the central portion was built at the time, the wings being erected in 1825-27. The Infirmary was granted a Royal Charter by George III in 1819, establishing it into a Body Corporate and Politic, called the "Dundee Royal Infirmary and Asylum". In 1820 the Asylum was formally established as a separate entity in premises in Albert Street, Dundee.
By the mid nineteenth century the King Street premises were no longer adequate and in 1852 building started on a new site in Barrack Road, near Dudhope Castle. Designed by Messrs. Coe & Godwin of London, it was completed and opened in February 1855, when patients were transferred from King Street. Originally constructed to accommodate 220 patients, later additions were made and the hospital began to diversify its services with new children's, ear and eye, ear nose and throat wards and an out patient clinic. The infirmary was granted further Royal Charters in 1877 and 1898 - the former on the occasion of the opening of a convalescent home at Barnhill and the latter providing for the addition of a maternity hospital.
In July 1948 the running of the Infirmary was transferred to the National Health Service in accordance with the 1947 National Health Service (Scotland) Act. The hospital closed in 1998, after all services were transferred to Ninewells Hospital.
