The property is a unique opportunity to live in a `piece of Glasgow`s history` in this one-bedroom apartment close to the City and River Clyde. This imposing building, fronting Bridge Street, was designed by James Miller in early French Renaissance style. The massive four-storey and attic building was built with cream sandstone in 1890. There was an arched entrance to a central booking hall at street level and additional entrances leading directly to the platforms at each end of the building. These side entrances are still in use as access to the apartments following the redevelopment of the upper levels of the block for residential use in 1994. The area surrounding the property has been selected by Glasgow City Council for extensive redevelopment - The Laurieston Local Development Strategy - which will create of a new `green city park` at the heart of the development with retail, residential and leisure use.
