Thought to have been designed by Alexander Kirkland, it&#39;s the most impressive building in a pretty much untouched 1850s tenement streetscape in the west of the city that is an important, but under appreciated, part of its architectural heritage.<br/><br/>#glasgow #architecture #finnieston<br/> <img src="https://media.mastodon.scot/media_attachments/files/115/643/818/847/006/658/original/84e090a58d0f3899.jpg"> <br/> 2025-12-01T10:24:29Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2srffyphuclq6dv5svjwuytkylhuxepyl2t5hjlqxw352pkla6dczyq474vtpffe2v0khgzzqh8dkx686day6suj37609tsxw28ugntjhwx6qhhz Sunset at Zaha Hadid&#39;s 2011 Riverside Museum on Pointhouse Quay in Glasgow.
