An illustrated talk featuring buildings from Glasgow’s Victorian era, many of which have undergone adaptive re-use over the last 10-15 years. The examples celebrate the impressive conservation, creativity and investment undertaken to repurpose these architectural treasures and weave these historical fragments into the urban fabric of post-industrial 21st Century Glasgow.
Time: Doors open 7pm for 7:30pm start.
Tickets: £6.00 with refreshments, no booking necessary. Cash and card payments accepted.
About Rosalie Menon
Rosalie Menon, an architect and senior academic at the Mackintosh School of Architecture at the Glasgow School of Art, has devoted over 25 years to the integration of architectural practice, teaching, and research. Her appreciation for the urban landscape of her home city of Glasgow is evident in her previous publication, 'Fragments of Glasgow', and once again in her latest work, 'Glasgow From Above'.
