Greatest Glasgow Awards is pleased to present this beautiful picture: By @photography20172018 Congrats for your work! Princes Square is located on Buchanan Street in Glasgow. The original buildings consisted of a 4 storey merchant square built in yellow sandstone, and were designed and built in 1841 by John Baird and other architects. The original fabric has been protected as a category B listed building since 1970. The then owner, James Campbell, in celebration of the birth of the Prince of Wales, who later became Edward VII, named his new building Princes Square. The Hugh Martin Partnership, who were the architects who reconfigured and extended the space to turn it into an iconic shopping centre in 1987, have won numerous awards for their renovation. #Glasgow #Excellence #Glasgowcity #Glaswow #Glaswegian #Scottish #Scotland #Visitscotland #Visitglasgow #UK #Buchanan #princessquare #Architecture #Building #BuchananStreet #GlasgowAwards #glasgowblogger #glasgow2019#shopping #Shopcentre #mall #street #city #loveglasgow #princessquareglasgow #glasgoecitycentre #loveglasgow #iloveglasgow (at Princes Square) https://www.instagram.com/p/BstGvx2HlDn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19ttn81ej5c8g

During the end of the XIX century, some passenger ferries, known as Cluthas, provided a service running up and down the River Clyde in Glasgow. The Clutha bar was popular with the crews and passengers from these Clutha boats. Later known as McLaughlin, in 1992 it returned to its original name. On 29 November 2013, a police helicopter crashed into the Clutha. Ten people died as a result of this accident. The bar was closed until July 2015 when it reopened with a mural on both sides of the pub. This stunning and emotive mural was painted along the walls by EJEK and Rogue One, depicting some of the people who drank and played there, such as Billy Connolly, Jimmy Reid, Stan Laurel, Benny Lynch, Glenda Jackson, Spike Milligan or Frank Zappa. Recently, a new mural of Charles Rennie Mackintosh has been added to celebrate his 150th anniversary.

Greatest Glasgow Awards is pleased to present this beautiful picture: By @getchyada_ Congrats for your work! In 1626-1627, at the crossing of the four main medieval streets of Glasgow, the town council built a new Tolbooth (a building providing a council meeting chamber, a court house and a jail). It was overtopped by the Steeple containing the town clock and it was described as Scotland´s “most remarkable civic building of the 17th century”. The Tolbooth Steeple stood higher than the Tollbooth -7 storeys plus the crown totalling 126ft, so that the huge faces of the clock, painted blue and adorned with gold roman numerals, would be easy to read. For centuries, the Tolbooth Steeple clock has witnessed marketplaces, proclamations and public hangings of Glasgow occurred. Nowadays, the clock tower, located on a traffic island, is the only surviving part of the Tolbooth building. #Glasgow #Excellence #Glasgowcity #Glaswow #Glaswegian #Scottish #Scotland #Visitscotland #Visitglasgow #UK #Ibelongtogasgow #peoplemakeglasgow #visitscotland #blueskies #Tower #Clyde #ArgyleStreet #tolbooth #steeple #glasgowcouncil #clocktower #trongate #highstreet (at Glasgow, United Kingdom)

This Roman Catholic cathedral was built between 1814-1816 by James Gillespie Graham in the Neo-Gothic style, and it is dedicated to the patron saint of Scotland, Saint Andrew. It was raised to the status of Cathedral in 1884. It was completed during a time of restrictions on Catholic places of worship to serve the growing numbers of Irish people coming to Glasgow during the Industrial Revolution, so it is a relatively modest building, without a bell tower. The gleaming white interior features an impressive organ, vibrant stained-glass windows, and notable modern religious artwork. We recommend to visit the 2018 Best Glasgow Houses of Worship 🏆.
