History and Modern Tour of Sauchiehall Street – Glasgow, Scotland
A guided tour of one of Glasgow’s most famous streets – Sauchiehall Street. We learn about the historic and modern buildings, changes in transport and the developments (old and new) along a street that began centuries ago.
Good stuff! You missed out the CCA (Which you mentioned earlier), it merging with the old Cotton Club and when G2 was The Venue. I don't know if The Brunswick Cellars are still there but they no doubt have some history associated with them. I'm looking forward to the Rose Street to Buchanan Street follow up video. In fact a wealth of stories of the fires from Charing Cross to Buchanan Street (With a quick extra detour down Pitt street to see another John Burnet building, Elgin Place Congregational Church, would be worthwhile. So many fires in so short a time on that street.
Worth nothing that a helicopter crashed into he Charing Cross mansions at the Woodlands Road side. Add to that the Pollok Park crash and the Clutha Vaults crash and we could have another interesting look down unfortunate similar disasters within Glasgow.
Keep up the good work and I'll keep on watching it 🙂
I like it but like @m0rarty I think you have to finish it going to Buchanan St., and from Charing Cross west to the junction with Argyle St., you cant just show one third of the street.
