@thevicsoc @wrmkay @MayorofLondon Is there somewhere you can easily see what’s being demolished?

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

@chaka__stan @ScotRail Also the copy is infuriating
ask for kids for

A quid ticket

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

@PaulJSweeney @N_T_S Hybrid solution would work best - public restaurant/bar in ground floor and public access to bookable space upstairs/to rear, as a condition of consents

It’s maybe finally time to not be on this app anymore

@is_glasgow @TimGroomArc @MurphyNiallGLA @MrJohnNicolson @createstreets @boys_nicholas @newglasgowsoc @AndyBurnhamGM @StallanBrand @JudeBarber1 Though New Gorbals is led by its community-based housing association. It is still commissioning high-quality designs, such as the recent award-winning @pagepark North Gate for @NewGorbalsHA. It marked the completion of the Crown Street Regeneration Project, which began in 1990.

[Page\Park Architects @pagepark]

We are delighted that North Gate has been shortlisted for the Neave Brown Award for Affordable Housing. This award, established in honour of the renowned modernist architect & social housing pioneer Neave Brown celebrates achievements in affordable housing @NewGorbalsHA @RIBA

@MhairiHunter Also ‘fine’ should not be the standard we are aiming for…

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

@MhairiHunter The list you are talking about is the listing system! Glasgow is one of the few cities in the country that treats listed buildings as a problem rather than an opportunity. Our heritage can’t be at the mercy of market forces - once it’s gone we can’t get it back!

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

@ChristyMearns @pagepark @Glasgowdodf Didn’t get a chance to talk to you Christy - thanks so much for coming along!

[Cllr Christy Mearns @ChristyMearns]

Great to join @pagepark tonight for an interesting discussion for @Glasgowdodf. The challenges facing our built heritage are significant but great work is happening & we need more of it!

Trongate area was looking great in the sun (despite the buildings at risk nearby 😢) 🌇

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

@MurphyNiallGLA @GlasgowHeritage Glasgow should just employ a squad of abseilers to work continuously round the city - it’s the only way to tackle it.

@RoryOlcayto @MurphyNiallGLA @PaulJSweeney @AddictedToTweed Speaking in Nov. in Brussels to the Art Nouveau network about the Mack, where there is more interest in Glasgows built heritage than we seem to have in our own country!

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

@RoryOlcayto @MurphyNiallGLA @PaulJSweeney @AddictedToTweed Currently working with a community in a small ex-mining town who said themselves in consultation ‘we don’t deserve nice things’ a post industrial psychology alive in Glasgow at all levels. Failure to recognise our globally significant architecture for what it is.

[Page\Park Architects @pagepark]

As a part of this year’s @Glasgowdodf and in the spirit of knowledge-sharing and collaboration, we invite you to join us for this event where a panel will share and discuss their knowledge and experience in heritage based projects.

So great to be recognised by @ArchitectsJrnal for our work commitment to conservation and reuse.

‘Practice of the Year’ sounds alright!

Well done to O’Donnell Brown, also repping Glasgow’s great architecture talent

[Page\Park Architects @pagepark]

Page\Park was last night named ‘Practice of the Year’ at the AJ Retrofit awards, as well as winning an award for @HydeParkPH in the Conservation (up to £5m) category. We're overjoyed by this recognition of our work to conserve and adapt existing buildings!

@PaulJSweeney @RoryOlcayto @MurphyNiallGLA Madness - it must have been a horrible time to live in the city if you cared about these buildings - worse than now!

[John Brown @john_t_brown]

The art does not belong to the council, it belongs to the people. Legacy of Tory Britain is knowing the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

[BBC Midlands @bbcmtd]

Birmingham City Council owns an artwork collection valued at almost half a billion pounds, a BBC investigation has discovered.

The scale of the council-owned art collection has also revealed.

@BarnabasCalder @Google I wonder how many people also don’t trust its answers, I immediately scroll past it
