Urban Splash set to save modernist icon
19 October 2007 By Rory Olcayto "St Peter’s Seminary owner presses for firm proposal Developer Urban Splash is considering a bid to save one of the most important modernist buildings in Scotland, St Peter’s Seminary in Cardross. The firm, which has recently begun work on the redevelopment of grade II* listed Parkhill estate redevelopment in Sheffield, confirmed this week it was “really interested” in acquiring the grade A listed building, which earlier this year was placed on the World Monument Fund’s watch list of the planet’s 100 most endangered sites (News June 15 ). The 1960s building by Gillespie, Kidd & Coia — which will feature in an exhibition on the firm at Glasgow’s Lighthouse architecture centre next month — has been derelict since the 1980s and is the subject of a conservation study by Avanti Architects. It is expected to recommend the buildings are given a new use. But the Archdiocese of Glasgow, which owns the building, warned that similar proposals in the past had foundered, and called on the developer to make a firm offer." James H |

Any time before the end of November would be ok, after that it gets a little mucky and hard to reach
