New flats overlooking the Firhill Basin in the north of Glasgow. Along with the narrow boats berthed below, their tall, gabled and colourful design give this stretch of the Forth and Clyde Canal a distinctly Dutch feel. I doubt this is the type of image which comes to mind when many people think of Glasgow.

Tall, narrow, gabled modern buildings rising above a canal where a row of boats are berthed.

The former New City Road branch of the Glasgow Savings Bank. Built in 1909, it's one of only a few older buildings to survive the post-war redevelopment this part of Glasgow, which largely involved demolishing the traditional sandstone tenements (see map below) and replacing them with a motorway and interchange to allow quicker access from the suburbs, which lie beyond the city's limits, into the heart of Glasgow.

#glasgow #architecture #urbanredevelopment #glasgowbuildings #glasgowhistory

The towers and spires rising above the sandstone tenements of the West End of Glasgow. These types of views are quite special, and distinctively Glaswegian. However, in the last couple decades they've become increasingly rare to find as more and more modern high rises are built across the city, and this, I think, is a loss to Glasgow's identity as its becoming more and more like any other city.

The towers of Victorian buildings rising above traditional and modern tenement buildings.

1860s commercial buildings on the corner of Howard Street and Maxwell Street in central Glasgow. Built for the printers McCorquodale and Company, earlier this year plans were proposed to demolish much of this block and replace it with a modern, multistorey hotel building.

Once a common sight on British streets, in some places such FP covers were used as the basis for a kid's game where if you noticed someone was standing on one, you got to give them a Free Punch (FP). When these covers were replaced with modern ones embossed with FH, for Fire Hydrant, the game was quickly changed to Free Hit! I've no idea if this game was ever played in Glasgow.

An old Fire Point (FP) style fire hydrant cover on Old Rutherglen Road in the Gorbals area of Glasgow. It seems that this cover has somehow survived the wholesale destruction of the Gorbals in the 1960s, and the more recent round of redevelopments from the 1990s onwards.

All in all, a great example of how to blend old and new without destroying the traditional feel of an area. It was designed in 1990s by John Gilbert.

Alexander 'Greek' Thomson's 1856 Caledonia Road Church was once the centre of a thriving community and was surrounded by tenements. Its burned out remains now stand alone as a sole surviving remnant on a narrow strip of otherwise unoccupied land between two major road on the southside of Glasgow.

#glasgow #architecture #glasgowbuildings #church #glasgowchurches #urbandecay #urbanredevelopment

A ruined church based in a Greek temple with a tall tower lies isolated in the middle of a busy road junction. The tenements which once surrounded it are now gone, with only some having been replaced with modern low-rise developments.

This raises two questions in my mind:

1. Why was it not listed?

2. Even without listing, why has permission been granted to demolish such a culturally important building which is also a major local landmark?

Despite efforts to save it, work has started to demolish the Art Deco Mecca cinema on Balmore Road in the Possil area of Glasgow. Designed by James McKissack in an Art Deco style and built in 1933, the Mecca (later the Vogue) originally seated over 1,500 people. It closed as a cinema in 1968, but has been used by many other businesses since.
