Fly through of Paisley town centre circa 1900.
Thanks

Amazing video and big thanks to you for the time and effort into creating the video. I say knock down the Piazza, transfer the businesses to the empty High St and the Paisley Centre, and open back up the river to the buddies. This would vastly improve the experience of visiting Paisley Town centre and perhaps reverse the ghost town it's become.

I agree. It is hideous.

[@sharonmills6388]

Amazing! You've done a fantastic job. It's a travesty that they knocked down the old jail, that it was allowed to fall into disrepair, and that they built the Piazza over the top of the river, destroying so much character.

Thank you, an amazing video bringing 1900 Paisley alive again.

fantastic work. Really brings the city back to life.

Brilliant!! A LOT of work went into that!! Thank you.

[@davmac2116]

Ian, that's great work

[@uwsalumni55]

Fantastic Ian, well done!

[@neilcampbell1385]

Brilliant Paisley has a fantastic history 👏

[@derekogilvie6942]

This was absolutely wonderful. For years I wondered how the town had looked before "modernisation". Fascinating. Thank you.

Love the music for this.

Good video. Sad to lose so much heritage.

[@ineedmyhat]

Good god ! This is amazing. Even as a toddler I knew Paisley got shafted through the years by fad architectural styles.

[@arleencullen6029]

Fantastic! I love to hear about things from Paisley's past 😊

[@wmsstuff271]

That Piazza building is one of the worst things to happen to Paisley. Beautiful river running right through the centre of town and they stick a horrendous 60s buiding over the top of it.

[@keithmcgaw8228]

Well done, very interesting!

[@markslavin9420]

Seen news of this piece, thought I'd check out the video. So glad I did best few mins viewing in a long while. Mr Young this absolutely great, thanks for sharing this. Brilliant! Look forward to watching more. Top Class.

[@chrisinstasis7986]

Good effort! Very cool to see it all in a different light.

[@jillmcglashan4858]

Very interesting! Well done 👍

[@v-mac2263]

Well done Ian!

[@barryweldon8056]

This is fantastic! Well done Ian

[@JockOfAether]

This is really cool, thanks for sharing this. I have a couple of books about old Paisley with some great pictures in it, but this is the best images of the old jail I've seen, i can now picture it in my mind a lot better.

[@DG-mv6zw]

Wonderful piece of work, Ian. Many thanks.

[@baddaboomify]

Really fascinating!

[@ScottMorrison-xe7mq]

Brings back memories

[@irvinejohnston2627]

Wonderful! Have memories of standing on BB parade on Remembrance Sunday in the square in front of the Municipal Buildings. Plans for any more? Old High St/Oakshaw or Causeyside St/Canal St? Fantastic effort, well done Sir!

Thanks for that, it was a lot of work to build this model. I was looking into doing Paisley high street from 1900 but I got no help from the museum, lottery or anyone so I basically gave up on it... Heres a full VR/360 view of County Square from 1900. kzbin.info/www/bejne/omqalGqdgMebf5Y just move mouse or finger around phone to see full scene

[@Apocalipz1]

Just wow. This video took me away.

[@rj9022]

Ian, what a fantastic piece of work. I can’t imagine how long this must have taken. What platform did you use to model this?

[@ianay]

Cheers! modelled and rendered using Lightwave 3d

[@letsgoforaspin]

I work in the offices in the Piazza building. To see this video and see what Paisley used to look like, what a monstrosity

[@williammcdermid2892]

Is that the same river that cathcart is named after

[@Justme-lg5yq]

Paisley destroyed a lot of great buildings mills all sorts is a scandal
