Friary Court Glasgow – Crown Street housing
In 1993 Page\Park Architects became involved in the conversion of the grade 1 listed St Francis Church and Friary into a community centre and sheltered housing. In 1997 when the Crown St Regeneration Project were deciding on development teams for phases of the Queen Elizabeth Square masterplan, they gave Page\Park the opportunity to extend their work at St Francis Church to the ‘phase D’ site immediately next door.
