Why is it that the improvements ran out of steam in St Enoch Square and we are still stuck with the diabolically bad 1970's underground entrances and the shoddily sited Air Quality Monitoring station that could have landed from outer space?

Done.
Four years ago, Cumbernauld won the second Plook on the Plinth Award for the Most Dismal Town in Scotland. It gives us absolutely no pleasure to announce that four years later, Cumbernauld has won the Plook on the Plinth again.
Over 6,000 individuals have accessed our voting pages for the Award. Cumbernauld received 27% of the vote with its closest rival Ardrossan in second place with 18%.
In addition two other awards have been voted on by the public. The Zit Building for the Most Disappointing building, has gone to the Pinnacle on St Vincent’s Street in Glasgow. The Worst Planning Decision has gone to the proposed M74 extension on the south side of Glasgow.
"Cumbernauld is the town with the best people but the worst town centre. Everyone here would vote this as the worst town centre in Scotland. It has been in decline for years and suffered from decades of neglect.”
