This Is My Glasgow

I love this curved entrance and door on the 1870s former Cook and Sons building in Elliot Street in the Anderston area of Glasgow. While a lot of them have been lost, such polychromatic brick industrial buildings are as much a part of Glasgow's diverse architecural heritage as red sandstone tenements, grand churches and ornate civic buildings.

@thisismyglasgow the detailing of the pale brickwork and the way it links the ground and upper floors is impressive. Is it likely the building will be repurposed in the future?

@morgrugyn Unfortunately, I don't know. There's meant to be some work going on in it just now, but nothing seems to be happening with it and it remains boarded up.
