Former Post Office on Waterloo Street in Glasgow. Built in 1903, it was designed in a Classical style by W.T. Oldrieve from the Office of Works. I particularly like the row of lion's heads on the second storey pillasters.

Looking west down Waterloo Street in Glasgow towards the iconic Anderston Pyramid at sunset this evening.

This is one of the few examples of architectural sculptures on a pre-1940s Glasgow building by a female sculptor (and in fact I cannot think of any other examples off the top of my head).

The former Metropolitan Vickers building on Waterloo Street in Glasgow. Built in 1925 in the modern classical style, this building is notable for the animal masks along its roof line.
These were created by Phyllis M. Bone. Famous for her animal sculptures, she became the first female Academician of the Royal Scottish Academy in 1940.
