Can you guess this building-at-risk by looking at this broken stained glass window? Hint: the building lost its roof last year.

Come work with Glasgow Building Preservation Trust and make a difference to the historic built environment in Glasgow. We have a lot of exciting restoration and repurposing projects in the pipeline! And lots of great stories to share with the people of Glasgow, too.
GCC votes to demolish the fine and historic 32 Mansionhouse Road. For shame! A fine house and Willie Malley's place of death.

Edinburgh Castle reimagined by AI. Boring boxes of concrete and glass. Heatherwick asks us to imagine nation’s favourite buildings stripped of their soul, demonstrating the harm to our physical and mental health - #OwenJonesArchitect would agree!

Great video documenting the extent of cycle lanes in Glasgow. Well done Glasgow cyclist Ⓥ and thanks Joe Fae Glesga for sharing.

Could the new bus stops game changer to the Tetris pavement at Hope Street? #streetpavement #glasgow #citycentre
😔 😢 Glasgow has so much history, so many proud buildings & places singing of its past & potential future. And yet they’re slipping through our fingers like lost sand. Bravo to Paul Sweeney for daring to love them ….
Hope Street is getting new bus shelters! It's a busy junction with both #vehicular and #pedestrian traffic from all directions. Just hope the pavement area will be resurfaced eventually so no one will trip and fall, or walk through water puddles after heavy rains 🌧️ #hopestreet
#MomentsOfBeauty : This is architect David Barclay’s no-nonsense muscular granite doorcase for his huge Hunter Barr warehouse of 1900 now known as the Guildhall on Queen Street. There’s something about this deeply modelled if understated building which feels very metropolitan 🥰!
