New Housing by Elder & Cannon Architects for Strathallan

Date: 2004
Location: north bank of Clyde, city centre, near St Enoch Centre

Icon Building - Saltire Awards Information

Thirteen storey icon building for Glasgow developer Strathallan. Typical forr Elder & Cannon this building is sculptural and interesting. The side elevations sheath the thin slice of spaces facing south to the Clyde and are generally solidly clad. Currently the building sticks out a bit, but proposals by gm+ad, RMJM and Page \ Park will help provide a more contemporary and dense urban setting.
