The end of Glasgow's Red Road flats

With Catrin Nye

[@thetruthwillout3347]

Me and my mate stayed here for a couple of weeks back in October 1997 whilst on a resettlement course at Richies. We were on the 20th floor in the first block which was a YMCA. On the first day we stood out on the balcony and spotted the supermarket and small shops and said we'll go there tomorrow to get some supplies. 6am my mate is banging on my door.....come and look at this....the supermarket was on fire and there was half a dozen fire engines tackling the blaze....it was completely destroyed! For the following weeks we watched the local kids looting the burnt out remains. I learnt later that the huge amount of water that the Fire Brigade poured on it flooded the underground bingo hall and bar and damaged it beyond repair. That was an interesting time in Springburn at the Red Road Flats!

[@Cullenjohnmichael]

Listening to them describe life in the 80/90’s there was really shocking to me and I only live 8 miles away. The poverty divide between the inner city and the suburban areas is still rife today. I bet the original residents who moved there when they were built were just happy not to have to use a communal toilet at the back of a dark dirty rat ridden tenement at 2am when it’s freezing, windy and pissing it down outside. Going by stories from my papa.

Can we just take a moment to remember the “White Mice”. The men who unknowingly while building these flats were exposed to deadly asbestos & killed them. Their families still fight for justice. Glasgow Remembers 🙏🏻

[@georginaohara42]

@Matt Quinn - Caledonian TV I’m genuinely sorry to hear that. I grew up across the road from the 3 flats on St George’s road (Cedar court). I remember in the mid 80’s families were decanted out so the council could remove the asbestos in the flats so it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that yourself & many others were exposed to the deadly stuff. From the little I know about it there are 2 types. Blue & white, the latter being the deadly one. It has to be broken or disturbed for the spores to go in to the air & inhaled, tiny microscopic spores.

[@haatpraat2993]

I lived in south side Glasgow for 4 years, near Govan Hill. If it was not for some of the locals, I think I would have hung myself. The local people are great fun and a serious back up if required.

Thanks Caitlin for posting this and the work it entailed. I spent some time also in Red Road using the YMCA for cheap digs working at the Cali, the railworks in Springburn for Railcare. It was an eye opener for sure roughly around 1997/98 watching the local gangs fight from the top storey bar/restaurant. The daily tours with the police helicopters separating Springburn/Royston kids battling. I knew an ex squaddie use the local shops and was turned over by kids no older than 11 at knife point, shook him up. A guy I worked with Ian from Ferryhill Durham settled with a lass up there. I enjoyed Glasgow, some cracking people and the bants at work between the old firm was unreal. I was speaking recently to a glaswegian lad who told me the flats were gone, sad, obviously steeped in history both good and bad due to poverty in the area. Fond memories of Wully Broon from Bishop Briggs who used to get me tickets for the Gers, met some Brill Celtic lads too. Happy times.

@Bolt x I too didn't live in Red Road but I stayed up the high flats in Paisley and had family living in a number of different blocks across Glasgow, on a personal level I met nice people in the high flats and had a fantastic house but the area and people that surrounded us made it a very dangerous and unpleasant place to be

There's nothing wrong with highrise flats, I live in a highrise in Salford Greater Manchester and the flats are nice, it's just a shame that it's some of the scummy people the housing put in them.

[@zombeat7376]

I agree I lived there in the mid 90's. I still miss the great neighbours I had in my landing and my wee flat. It was really handy for the town as well. I used to walk to tower records from there. But of course that was in my twenties I couldn't handle such a walk nowadays but back then it was nothing to walk to tower records so Glasgow city was handy for me at the time. Of course now I live in a very nice home and feels like I come a long way since those days. But all this said I actually still miss my wee flat, the neighbours and the view out the window. ;)

[@zombeat7376]

The concierge were great back then too. Made you feel safe. One guy in the lift I knew actially was joking around in the lift with a knife. They asked me about it and pulled him up for it. But still it was nice to have that security. I have good memories living there to be honest. Some of the happiest times of my life and I miss seeing them in the skyline. Almost like losing an old friend. :,(

[@annemariecandyflip6531]

Nothing wrong with high-rise towerblocks?! It's a disgrace for humanity! Those UK 60's towerblocks were and are way too giant: so many people living in small, damp and grimmy little rooms with 30(!!) floors. I call that unresponsible, dangerous and depressing! They shouldn't have been built in the first place. No wonder they became and become crime ridden shit holes were only the desperate move(d) in or flung themselves from the floors. I read many stories about those places and seen many videos plus peoples stories about living in the blocks or from people who once lived in them, they might have been okay for a short while when they came fresh on the market but I don't call this way of living healthy. They turned into dark shit holes and blocks like the Red Road can't be simply controlled. Nothing is wrong with highrise living as long the appartments are well equipped, spacious and at its most 10 to 12 floors. And very important: high maintenance is a must! I do agree people make the difference in the end, you have to make something of it where ever you live but it's easier when things around you are well organized and supported by everyone in the community! I saw the movie Red Road and read the book by Irvine.....towerblocks like these do have something creepy and fascinating but I never hope I have to move in one day!

[@zombeat7376]

@@annemariecandyflip6531 well actually living at Red Road were some of the best years of my life. Lived there mid to late 90's. It was clean tbh the only good and clean looking thing about Springburn at the time anyway. It was nice living there and had some of the best neighbours I ever had since living there. So much so I actually miss them..my advice to you is don't be so critical of something you clearly haven't experienced yourself. But then this said I did go back for a visit like to reminisce and take photos of the red Road flats where I used to live and felt quite sad at how much it had declined since I lived there. I believe they knew the flats would be coming down at some point so they didn't bother and let the place become overgrown with weeds and looked like a tip. But tbh it was great living there and was not cramped at all. You could go into your flat and totally forget you even had anyone living next door. Also the view was nice to wake up to every day. But the decline on those flats was nothing to do with them.being high rise, it was obviously the council who didn't give a damn as they probably knew they were going to be demolished anyway. I am very sad to see them go and I genuinely miss them. Just a shame the council didn't care. I mean even the wee housing office where I first went was a disgrace when I went back after so many years. Of course all gone now. Funny thing though actually one of the funniest memories for me when I lived there is I was just going to kwik save there one morning after leaving my flat. On the path on the way there I met my neighbours brother he asked me where I was going. I said kwik save. He said it's not there anymore. I laughed and just walked on. I thought he was kidding. I turned the corner and he was right enough it was gone. There was no rubble it was just an empty space where the building was. It was so crazy as it was a shop only a couple of days ago. 😂 but of course it was quite sad too. I always like that kwik save...at the time. Some of the best years of my life living there and I have heard some nice stories from other people who lived there too. You can't blame flats for people deciding to kill themselves either, if a person genuinely wants to end their life they will find some way of doing it whether they live in a high flat or not. P.s I think since that Grenfell incident it actually puts people off. Understandably but again that is the councils fault not taking proper precautions. The council are irresponsible but I think rhe initial idea and reason for building them was a great idea. But they wasted the money as they really demolished them too soon considering that they weren't that old. They built them and squandered the money to demolish them and build new houses. There is no way they will fit the same amount of people in that area now. So in the end reduced rhe amount of housing available. It's crazy they demolished them in such a short time after they were built and a total waste of money. But then that's nothing new for the council.

[@annemariehosper3826]

@C J A?! What rubbish are you talking about, what has my nationality to do with me finding those towerblocks shown in the video evil places to live? We're talking about nothing more or less. Kinda weird behavior you expose, slammin'

[@bingobaz6402]

It was some view and was really handy for Glasgow. Wasn't that bad. The flats were quite nice when I lived there. Only bad thing was all the pigeons and pigeon shit. I remember before I moved in thinking it will be nice at night sitting in the veranda and looking out at the lights etc. But this was before I realised how unhygienic it would be to sit out there. Also had wire so the pigeons couldn't get in but somehow they always did. I suppose a lot has happened since I lived there. Remember my crazy dad decorating the hall after I had a fire and mum and dad coming to visit me. My dad is gone now. Also many other people since then. I had no idea was going to miss living there so much. But for sure the missing living there has definitely a lot to do with how much better it was than it is now without certain family members. I suppose i just miss my dad and some other people as well as my view out my window. Was super clean this place when I lived there. But they let the place go. I reckon they knew wuite a long time in advance that they were coming down so the council stopped cleaning the place and didnt bother. As I went back to visit the flats to take some photos and reminisce several years after I moved out and litterelly had a tear in my eye how bad the place looked since I lived there. Even the wee housing office where I remember going to talk to the housing officer (with my mum and dad) and viewing the flat, then getting my keys was like a bomb site. Had plants and everything growing out of it. The kwik save was good too. Miss that as well. Even my neighbour in a way. I think like a lot of things don't realise how lucky we were back then. Now the world has turned to shit.
