Speaking purely for me, a relative newcomer, I welcome people resurrecting older threads I've missed. There's just soooooooooooooo much on HG it's impossible to take it all in.
Likewise - this is a good thread that I hadn't seen before
Would think that there are quite a few building still standing in the East End - I walked the Calton Heritage Trail some weeks back (LES leaflet). Just had a quick glance at the leaflet and the most obvious one that I don't think has been mentioned is Templeton's Carpet Factory on Glasgow Green. Seems that it was buit in stages from 1857 with Leiper's distinctive frontage being added 1889.
Greendyke Street has the City's former Hide, skin and Tallow Market (does that count?) from 1890 and has been converted into flats. And Tannery and Warehouse Building remains on St Andrews Square from 1876-77, also converted to flats.
If nobody has any photos, I'll try and take a few over the coming days
