I can still recall visiting Shawlands Arcade in Glasgow Southside in the late 1960s and thinking 'wow this is modern city living at it best'. It's now a seedy dilapidated quarter. Even my namesakes Harkins the jewellers has gone... and now one of those cloned anodyne Weatherpersons pubs is it 'best' feature.
This link is to the latest information on the arcade regeneration proposal going to planning stage. Interesting comments include, developers have 'pledged to retain half the land area as public open space'. If anyone participated in the formal community consultation back in May it would be good to read of how far they believe that any community views have been integrated in the amended proposal.
