[quote="minxy"]Buchanan Street and the Buchanan Hotel-
When I was but a bairn in the 70s', half the town centre of Glesga' was like that.
Boarded up with great open sores I thought went down to hell. Was under the impression it was Adolf Hitler efforts to remodel the town centre, but it was decay, neglect, tunneling and greed that took much of it doon!
I remember some STV drama comedy with Ian Cuthbertson getting "oot the Bar L' " after a wee stretch of porridge and turning up at the Buchannan thinking it was still one of Glesgas finer establishments ! Sad to see it and the wee bar in no mans land going (bar 81 was it?)
