jagtastic Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 First time I’ve come across this thread, some great stuff.Surprised there’s been no Mitchell Library yet, unless I’ve missed it... Also the city chambers which if you ever have a spare 10 minutes when you are passing is worth looking into just to see the marble stair caseQuite an interest in brutalist and modernism styles and I think the former BOAC office building on Buchanan Street is a cracking wee example in the context of where it sits within its surroundings. Love the copper cladding. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Inverness Town House is pretty impressive, especially since they tarted it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Quite taken by this clock tower in West Linton. I always think it looks a bit like an owl wearing a monocle. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottmcleanscontacts Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Perth really doesn't have many pretty buildings. The ones that are being left to rot, sadly. c***s need to sort it out.Kelvingrove is a great shout by the way. Tremendous building. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Guys, I have a very interesting question. Is it possible to build an industrial warehouse in a city? Not a suburb, not a village and not a field, but a city. The price of land in a city means that generally speaking it’s not going to make financial sense to build a warehouse there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Amazon warehouse at Halbeath looks big enough to accommodate Glebe Park (or Ainslie for that matter) so you could build a Brechin City or Edinburgh City in a warehouse (you'd need a skylight or a f*cking big u/v light to stop the hedge dying though) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a suburb, not a village and not a field, but a city. Here in Inverness we have lots of warehouses in the city centre. They are not too big but are full of stuff and include an area where members of the public can inspect the inventory and maybe purchase some of it. Also. We just call them "shops". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRocketman II Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I love the Wellington Church on University Ave in Glasgow. Whenever I pass I often imagine myself up on it trying to pacify an angry mob...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Here’s a couple of my photos of Paisley Abbey and Town Hall. I could also easily add pics of Coates Memorial Church, the Observatory, Abbey Mill, Paisley Museum.... fabulous architecture all around my hometown - amongst the pound shops, KFCs and vape shops.... like so many Scottish towns, but that’s another debate. Anyway, on a nice day, a long walk around Paisley throws up fantastic buildings and hidden gems of cobbled streets and cottages right in the centre of town. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily Glasgow City Council's fire raising department didn't get a hold of it before the refurb. How many of these wonderful old buildings were flattened? Really sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
