I grew up in Rutherglen, so it was great to see a bit of the southside. In my first job after school, I had to deliver stationary to the Glasgow School of Art, which was always a joy. The whole building is just awesome, a masterpiece.

The 90s and 2000s were good times for Glasgow, albeit sustained by a global property bubble that eventually collapsed. Its been doonhill since.

The Burrell museum's amazing from the point of view, this contains 1 man's collection, so vast it can't all B displayed @ once & they rotate some of it. There's also a replica of the living rm he had in his castle. It all started when his dad gave him money 2 buy a cricket bat & he bought a painting instead.

I love seeing old footage of city’s I grew up around, thanks for posting and also it’s bittersweet you managed to capture the charles rennie mackintosh building at 3:06 because that’s a real moment in time you both captured there considering the building always sadly destroyed in a fire last year, a true landmark of Glasgow gone forever..

Vey interesting, I’m assuming that the lady in the film either was Glasgow born before moving to North America or here parents were & you both visited family members still living in or around the city. The drive down Rosebery St was particularly interesting as I was driven down it many times myself as a child because my mother grew up living on that street & would often go back, it’s now gone completely and the area redeveloped. Rosebery st fell under the Oatlands area.

It was criminal how they tore down all the historic old buildings in areas such as the Gorbals only to replace them with ugly tower blocks that barely lasted a generation.
