@thisismyglasgow Those Victorian/Edwardian builders seemed to promote a useful AND beautiful approach to their public buildings and utilities. (William Morris)
This is a 'simple' pumping station at Tala
Blonde sandstone Victorian tenements lining Willowbank Crescent in the Woodlands area of Glasgow.
Townhouses on Park Circus in the West End of Glasgow. Designed by Charles Wilson, they were built in the 1850s. I love the way blonde sandstone glows golden in the early morning.

Holmwood on the Southside of Glasgow. Built in the 1850s for the paper magnate James Couper, this is Alexander 'Greek' Thomson's finest surviving building (at least in my opinion), and it shows a side to his creativeness which is not as obvious in his more numerous townhouses and tenements.
It's great to see the old Tower Records building on Argyle Street in Glasgow at least partially back in use. Designed by James Thomson as a Venetian style warehouse, it was built in 1863.
