The end of a sunny Spring day on Argyle Street in the Finnieston area of Glasgow. The buildings which line it were primarily built in the 1850s.
Love this new mural on an exposed tenement gable on Burghead Drive in the Linthouse area of Glasgow. Titled Guided by the Light, it was created by Jay Kaes in association with Yard Works
The red sandstone tenements lining Dumbarton Road in Partick, Glasgow, in the late eventing sun.
John Cunnimgham's 1890s gushet tenement on the corner of Duke Street and Hunter Street in the East End of Glasgow. I love the curved fascia above the ground floor commecial premises of this tenement as it gives the feeling that you're looking up at the prow of a great ship.

I love how Glasgow's tenements look in the sunshine. These 1870s blonde sandstone ones are on Woodlands Road on the west of the city.
This is the Ruthven Lane Cat in the west end of Glasgow. It's high on a wall on the back of an old tenement building, and it really doesn't look like it belongs there. It's a bit of a mystery as to who put it there, and why.

A classical style 1880s blonde sandstone tenement on Buckingham Street in the West End of Glasgow. It was probably designed by Horatio K. Bromhead. I love the repeating pattern of the windows and sills on this facade, which is broken by the single column of bay windows at the right hand end.

Gushet tenement overlooking the River Kelvin in the West End of Glasgow.
Columns of bow windows (the curved versions of bay windows) on Glasgow tenements. Such projecting windows increase the area of glass in them and so maximises the amount of light which enters the building.
One tenement reflected in another on Argyle Street in Glasgow.
Lone Survivor: It always seems rather sad to come across an orphaned tenement which has been left standing when all its neighbours have been demolished. Often, as is the case for this one on Keppochhill Road in Glasgow, the survivors have a pub on their ground floor and this was what saved it as it was deemed too expensive to buy out the licence for such premises.

Sandstone and sunshine on Crow Road in the west of Glasgow.
Good Morning, Glasgow. Blue skies, red tenement and sunshine - what better way to start the day!
Tenements on Cumbernauld Road in the Riddrie area of Glasgow. These tenements are unusual not only because of the gables on the front facade, but also because they're only three storeys high, when most built around the same time would have been four storeys.

This collection of rather weird and wonderful sculpted heads are carved onto the corbels of decorative arches over the entrances to a series of tenement closes on Killearn Street in the Possilpark area of Glasgow. As far as I know they're unique and I've not come across any simlar ones on other tenements elsewhere in the city (yet!).
