Stop B-listed Glasgow building being demolished to make way for student housing
Protect this building, which has only recently been secured and been made watertight in the last few years. Even use the building sensitively as part of the new idea to preserve what little charm is left on Argyle Street. No other city is destroying its architectural heritage on its main shopping areas for a student accommodation - which could easily be developed on one of Glasgow's many gap sites.
Why is this important?
J.A. Campbell architect . Building some of Glasgow's finest Victorian inner city architecture should be protected or at least sensitively redesigned for a modern city amenity rather than being demolished. It lies within the Central Glasgow conservation area, so in principle its demolition should not be approved.
