Another #Mackintosh building sadly vacant, partly demolished and suffering from buddleia. Former QM College Anatomical Dept, 1895. Adjoining former BBC now Scotsman Group HQ. Lovely stone details in the sun. #GlasgowHeritage

It's been a while right enough... so must be time to mention we created a Starter Pack for Greater #GlasgowHistory and #GlasgowHeritage full of folk & orgs from #Glasgow & surrounding places ... and if you like that sort of thing, it's rather good 😁 Yes this is a humble brag bsky.app/starter-pack...

Good to see work going on at the former Shed in Shawlands. I’ve heard a bar/music venue plus flats above. Built c. 1920 by Whyte and Nicol as Marlborough House, venue for weddings, receptions and dances. C-listed in 1992, and The Shed nightclub 1998-2024. Get that buddleia gone!! #GlasgowHeritage

It’s very sad that John’s Bar, Tobago Street, Calton is now in this state of disrepair. So many people have amazing memories of the place. Should auld acquaintance be forgot.😭🍺🥃#calton #thecalton #thecaltonglasgow #caltonglasgow #glasgow #glasgowpubs #johnsbar #glasgowheritage

Is this some hope for the regeneration of Thomson’s Egyptian Halls and Union St as a whole? 🤞🏻 #glasgowheritage www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/glasgow...
Glasgow council could buy rundown Egyptian Halls amid food market plan
The A-listed building's upper floors have been vacant for decades, but now Glasgow City Council will consider a compulsory purchase to aid redevelopment.
