Some of these buildings once dominated the city landscape.
Demolition is a concept familiar to Glaswegians, and some of the city’s lost buildings are more missed than others.
Red Road Flats An infamous feature of Glasgow’s skyline, the Red Road Flats were built in the ‘60s and were initially welcomed by the city with people flooding in from crowded tenements. By the ‘70s, the buildings had earned a reputation for crime. Some argue the new station is just as much of an eyesore, while others were happy to see the end of the former building.
On September 12, 1993, Glasgow City Council invited locals and the media to witness to building come down and 61-year-old Helen Tinney was hit by debris and died, while four others were injured.
