Derelict Glasgow Walk
Derelict Glasgow walk is back! The interactive walk first initiated in 2022 as part of New Glasgow Society’s ‘Building Stories’ exhibition – an ongoing storytelling project about Glasgow’s derelict buildings. The project aims to raise awareness of the perilous state of our historic and new architecture, and to start a conversation about preserving and improving our built environment.
We invite you to join us for a walk around Glasgow city centre identifying derelict buildings listed on the Building At Risk website, and others which are yet to be added to the list.
This walk will be led by Thierry Lye, Chair of the New Glasgow Society. Put on your walking shoes, explore and investigate!
