  • Built in 1844 this building is almost 200 years old. Apparently originally built as a Bonding Warehouse, it has had other businesses operating within it after its original usage.
    There is currently plans to convert what is left (after natural destruction has concluded) into apartment flats.
    This building and its history will soon be forever gone...

    This looks like another example in Glasgow, of what is most likely a listed building, being opened to the elements so that it decays to they point where it can be declared dangerous, the protection rescinded and the building demolished. The developers can than get going on making a big fat profit, with yet another piece of brute architecture, and further demoralise, what was once a magnificent and beautiful city.

      You should go into the library and get have a look at old Glasgow books. The architecture we've lost thanks to Glasgow City Council is criminal.

    Reminds me of our club up Sauchie above NICOS we were given in 1988-1994 the chance to do the first floor out of 3-massive floors to this huge old building,and the people/students packet our club named RAIN. Like this we had to strip it all back new dance floor to lighting & painted with Matt black & mambo - men in illuminious paint back on 1988-1992. Love these old listed places & should remain where they are just renovate inside for flats & sand blast outside. They still get used in movie like Hobbs & Shaw used the arches & George's Square. It was the self same guy Private Clubs & Boozers all over Glasgow that owned the Sub-club to Ashton Lane ... Just reminds me of when my brother got the keys to upstairs to get started on this old Victorian Building much like this as many were bond houses for keeping stuff that came off the big boats on the River Clyde. Fascinating watching your class footage with everything still intact .... WOW .... GREAT SUB 👌

      I saw another CZcams where the older guy narrating it is disgusted by the trees growing out the India Street building. He implied that this was a sign that the building was being let to rot and I agree with him. I am so sick of seeing "modern" square or rectangular "carbuncles" take the place of these beautiful old properties simply because they have been left to rot! I would like to say that this was only GCC but the NHS does the same with older hospital buildings after "someone" has stripped the interiors first of all. 😡💔🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    What they did to the "College Bar" on the High Street is absolutely criminal. One of only a small number of medieval buildings left in the city. It wasn't left to rot but razed to the ground by deliberate arson. It was they only way they could remove the small businesses that were thriving in an area the City Council deemed an eyesore and had already touted in the Glasgow Times as potentially beautiful should these businesses allow them to develop it. 🤬😡💔🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

      The College Bar situation deeply saddens me to this day, I had never been inside though unfortunately for me, what a waste of a medieval relic! Tragic.

    Jesus, I started watching this cos the name caught my eye. Then you got to the gym level... And after a minute I'm like, 'wait a fkin minute' ... My old Muay Thai class was in a gym near the top floor on Oswald St in the late 90s/early 2000s... It was such a cool place to train... Was this place opposite the car park?
    Edit: Holy shit just got to you opening a window and it WAS where I trained. We used to put the ropes up round the columns to make a ring every so often.
    Damn. I'm a little heartbroken realising and seeing this, what it's become. I was only thinking abt this place a few days ago, when listening to Rock Superstar by Cyprus Hill- that was our warm up music. God, I'm old. And the state of the building makes me very sad.

    • @Urban-Expeditions
      @Urban-Expeditions  Před měsícem +1

      Yeah buddy unfortunately the building will be demolished soon, now after meetings have taken place to decide its fate which is quite uncommon considering that it's in a conservationist location with its connection to Glasgow history and Broomielaw/River Clyde - Industrial history.
      The gym areas I found to be very cool and wondered about all the different lives that have walked through here and spent time throughout the buildings history, from recent times the gym and Papis member club to its original functionality, incredibly old in comparison to most of the buildings around it.
      Glad that you got something from it m8! All the best 👍

I feel like there was a room off to the back left but something, a door or mirror, was obstructing the entrance?... But I could be wrong.
      I missed the first minutes of the video cos my phones not working right so it was a genuine gut punch((!)) when I realised where you were.
      I never saw any of the other floors, they were private. I never even realised how old it was or what it had been when I attended... Guess you don't when you're 20.
      I also worked in Cardinal Folly's/The Temple/The Shack nightclub on Pitt St in the early 2000s, a stunning Greek Thomson church building that burnt down... So many lovely Glasgow buildings, now memories.

      Yes, decided very recently. I did hope that the building could be salvaged, even if only partially such as with the frontage/facade. I wonder what justifications were used to come to such a drastic and sudden decision?... it is most certainly one of the oldest buildings around that small area.
