Nowhere in the UK compares to brutal high-rise backdrop of Glasgow.. it's the undisputed king of rough But were there's rough, you'll probably find the best people too..
I stayed in the Flats at Gorbals Cross for 10yrs and loved it there the only reason I moved was to buy a House, I'll always be a Gorbals Guy, stayed there for 34yrs.😊
Lot of ill informed rubbish spouted about high flats in Glasgow. In many many cases the residents were delighted to move from terrible conditions into theses castles in the sky. Its v sad to think that so many of the buildings shown here are GONE, knocked down rather than restored with a bit of imagination. Shame on you Glasgow modern council. Sell off the land, pocket the money seems to happen everywhere Great film.
Its sad the transitions. Glasgow is going through. Going from a high town to low level housing projects. You no longer have that pilots eye view of the city. Every high rise in Glasgow I know of have all been scheduled for demolition or already been demolished. It's also good since buildings tend to decay within a 40 year range. I know of buildings and already have that old building smell, carpet stains and growing moldy, electricity and air conditioning problems, dim lighting, plumbing problems and cracked concrete. That's just 20 year old buildings. Red Road must be worse if it were twice as old.
I can just never get a good view of my own city glasgow cause we have no skyscrapers London has them Manchester has them Liverpool has them but we don't the biggest city in scotland but no skyscrapers depressing

Housing Association accommodation is another far more miserable chapter in my experience

The song suits the grimmy situation of and in towerblocks
I would have sung it myself if I was living in what I see in this video
