This Is My Glasgow<p>It seems plans are being drawn up by a developer to demolish the building in the foreground right of this shot to construct student accommodation. It's the 1930s former City Bakery building, and while currently not listed, it is nonetheless an important building for the city, and a rather stylish one at that. It's also still in use, so there seems no justifiable reason to allow it to be demolished. </p><p>Cont./ </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/builtheritage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>builtheritage</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/urbandevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbandevelopment</span></a>&nbsp;</p>

This Is My Glasgow<p>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. </p><p>Cont./</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/urbandevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbandevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/urbanredevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbanredevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/urbanrenewal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbanrenewal</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>I get rather annoyed every time I walk past this abandoned construction site in Partick. Mean to be 45 flats, it was started in 2020, but the company behind it folded in 2021. Given its position between the Expressway and an electricity substation, it's debatable as to whether it was ever a viable development in the first place, but there's no excuse for the partially-built site being left in this state for more than three years. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/urbandevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbandevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/abandonedbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abandonedbuilding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/abandonedglasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abandonedglasgow</span></a></p>
