Notice they didn’t film this in mid winter 😂😂😂

they pulled down Edinburghs sighthill high flats too

these high flats are iconic they where in small faces and still game

currently writing an essay on the displacement of Dalmarnock due to the 2014 commonwealth games and this video gave me a lot of good content! thank you.

My 2 uncles 2 brothers lived in pinkston drive from brand new to the 90s

OT TO FORGET HOW MANY CELEBRITIES made a visit to the Paddy,s there was Ruby Wax doing interveiws John Byrne Artist Midge Ure and his BAND regular and supporter Aex Frans ferdinand Danny Kyle Tony Roper BBC REPORTERS asking questions about The house of Lords lol and many many more

Im proud to have been born and lived in Dalmarnock , the characters like faither faulds , malky collins , Etta mclaren , john the humph , the big john carmichael our pele with better patter than any comedian out there, my dad was born in lily st and blatantly refused to move out of dalmarnock and passed away in 2012 , thank god he didnt see his home town now

Well said! Absolute disgrace what they’ve done to the area!

good but misleading perspective. project was unfinished, mistaken, then demolished and redone at least twice not just with the antonine centre but before that at every point architectural heritage people have said it's an asset. we're at the point now where there just isn't enough to fawn over any more. it's like changing all the parts of a porsche and saying don't touch the novelty gear stick it's such an asset!.. it's about time the people of cumbernauld get attention of NLC after being passed around stirling, dunbartonshire glasgow

To say the penthouses 'did not work' is untrue. They were no good for families with children as there was no outside space, apart from the roof, but they were ideal for young people working in the area. Although they were expensive so you had to have a well paid job to afford to live in them. The interior design was remarkable - it was a time capsule of the 60s with open tread wood staircases, wooden ceilings and some wooden walls.

❤ Great content,... giving what's left of Dalmarnock people a voice!

well made documentary

People think Cumbernauld failed. It didn’t really. It housed people from the slum tenements of town centre when the town was getting torn down when motorways were getting built. Cumbernauld had indoor toilets and houses that weren’t mouse infested.

Needs to go. Times have changed.

Aye its all changed all my family born in the brigait it was all families then change is not always good

Beautiful work man...

This is art. Beautiful. Absolutely brilliant.

great place to stay if your a crackhead

Damp black with damp.

Romanticised nonsense. Heroin hights had to go because they were crammed with shiftless jake balls who ruined them, like they do everything else.

Ma wee gran was born in swanson street and lived there with a family of 7 in one room and ma wee papa hid in the power station during the blitz

this wee woman here is a shining light in her community !…helped ma wee maw through the worst time in her life ..god bless ye hen x

May Jesus save your life forever

They cry this community regeneration 😂😂😂 - but they've destroyed the social cohesion o this pairt o Glesca, like they've din in aw ither pairts o Glesca - and noo there's nae sense o community onywhaur - only neeghbours living lives detatched fae yin anither! The lassie is exactly correct in her description and analysis o 'the legacy'!

shocking the council just demolish these flats in glasgow rather than retro fitting them, but of course back handers and other council cons makes sure that dont happen. Wait, what? you want a view and a unique viewpoint of your own city? na , you need money for that, go live glasgow harbour 1500 a month, your a council peasent, you will be ground and road level only. i still live in high flats, and used to live in the red rd. The view point you get of the city is unique and disgrace they are turning that into an elite thing.

It's guid tae here yon lassie speakin in the Glesca vernacular. But a'h mind when kids were cried weans! A'h served ma apprenticeship in Sir William Arrol's in Dunn St./ Baltic St.

Something familiar through the years.councillors and politicians deciding what is best for us.if there is criminal element anywhere its the authorities responsibilty to deal with it

the woman that says they dont partake in crime and co-operate 100percent with the polis and uses that word junky. well what about the crime element yous all took part in when selling cheap tobacco and fags and this goes onto fund organised crime and terrorism. oh well thats ok cos their no junkies

Ugh what the actual fuck man poor lassie, it makes me so mad 😢

I see the area has improved 😅

I couldnae even cut through Baltic without mad bastards trying to rob me for my capri sun and my fkn shoelaces. That being said, this video was still devastating to watch. I knew some of that woman's family back when I lived in Brigton.

Lived in 30/4 63 Petershill Dr from 1968 till 1980….brilliant place to grow up.

All this for the benefit of a bunch of Lycra clad narcissists

The scan bookshop was brilliant, so beautiful inside

Iwent to school in Dalmarnock, Carstairs Street - it was God awful.

Is it true that Cumbernauld shuts on a Sunday ? Wouldn't surprise me in the least ! I noticed that you managed to get in a nice plug on the wall of the building for William Hill ..bookies to the housing schemes ! Nice piece of advertising ...

I lived. There from 19 to 40 was good for kids but when down quick when housees. Sold for 23grand.and landlords put teenagers from Glasgow in them houses could not sell remember six homes and mine up for sale the shops were good in the old days so glad i on a island now best thing i didfor me and kids 😂

My goodness professor- assuming you don’t live here, it’s fine for you to advocate for its regeneration while you jump in your car and head home , no doubt to a leafy suburb. Let’s take lots of pictures and knock it down. Cumbernauld has grown and developed and deserves a better civic space

So I disagree with it being busier as people didn’t have cars, they did. It was busier because it used to have decent shops. Mothercare, John Menzies, Halfords, boots, shoe shops, wimpy , scan … if there were decent shops it would still be busy

Maybe if the airport next door stopped spraying the sky. Maybe it could be opened up and glorious again

Absolutely loved it!. Powerful!. Emotional! Great insight into the lives of those living in high rise flats!. How some loved it, and how others loathed it!. Buildings full of memories!.

Great price of history - well done too ❤

She's right. It could come back! Are the games not there again in 2 years?

Last time I was there some 10 years ago I was interested to see many newcomers to the UK , mostly women who were getting into earning and selling for a first step….so that opportunity is now closed

I'm sorry it might have been something years back before it shut down but it became a shithouse at the end smack on sale bottles of some sort of booze porn lumps of hash I bought some when times were hard I remember the cafe under the bridge ham ribs and cabbage mince and potatoes pie and beans chips pints mugs of tea their building something down there just now don't know what

Is that a door(white paint)at top below (blue )....odd building...

I remember buying second hand suits in Paddy’s Market during the Punk Rock era in the late 70s
