The St. Enoch Centre is a shopping mall located in the city centre of Glasgow, Scotland. The centre is located adjacent to St Enoch Square.
The Architects were the GMW Architects. The building started on site in 1986, and the building was opened to the public in 1989. It was officially opened by the then-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, in February of the following year. Construciton was undertaken by Sir Robert McAlpine.
Located on the site of the former St Enoch Station, the building is just off Glasgow’s famous shopping thoroughfare, Argyle Street. The retil property overlooks the historic St. Enoch Square and the original subway station building. The present St Enoch subway station is accessible by escalators.

Glasgow Transport Museum
The Transport Museum building in west Glasgow would be a tunnel-like shed, which is open at opposite ends to the city and the Clyde. In doing so it becomes porous to its context on either side. However, the connection from one to the other is where the building diverts to create a journey away from the external context into the world of the exhibits.
