A view in looking down in Glasgow. Sauchiehall Street, 1964.

The blurb with the photo states "Pictured is scaffolder Douglas Tennant, from Barrowfield, as he helps build the St Andrew's House office block - which would later become the Premier Inn hotel on Sauchiehall Street.

Over his shoulder can be seen the cooling tower of the old Pinkston Power Station, which once provided the electricity for Glasgow's tram network, and the old Buchanan Street Railway Station."

The map shows the station in the top right in hatching.

Borrowed from the "lost Glasgow" website.

Good to see a pic like that one from much nearer to home Scott McCallum.
