WOW   Took me ages to get through, but worth every minute

Urban Glasgow is lucky to have you, thanks for sharing these.

I remember most of the stuff in the pics from my teens and was involved in the demo of some of the lesser known buildings later.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

The last few of Cowcaddens are the area where I lived till 1967. The Kiwi was my Dad's local for many years even after we had left the area. I don't recognise the photo of Airdrie Street South East though.

The one you have showing the multi storey car park at the bottom of Cowcaddens looks like it was the gushet where the water fountain which is currently located in the front of the Herald building was situated.

Thank you Steapadair

The photographs, invaluable though they are, would make less sense without the captions. Thank-you for the captions.
