A new outdoor extension to the Cafe Ibiza (previously The Botanics).

Looking up the one-way street from Queen Margaret Drive.

Known as the Strathmore Bar until 2018, when it became The Botanics bar and restaurant, it has been transformed into Cafe Ibiza, which opened in June 2024.

This is a view along Kelbourne Street, from its junction with Queen Margaret Drive. The previous church building occupied the corner (the grassy space in front of the present building), but has now been demolished; see https://canmore.org.uk/site/168496/glasgow-queen-margaret-drive-north-kelvinside-church (at Canmore) for a photograph of it. The present-day building was its church hall, and stands on the site of a "mission hall", probably the same building, that is shown on OS maps from 1895, and which therefore pre-dates the now-demolished church.

The fire station is on Maryhill Road, and is viewed here from the canal towpath.

On Maryhill Road.

The cycle racks are at the foot of the steps up to a bridge over the canal Image that leads to a student village, so students are obviously intended to leave their bikes here and walk over the bridge. Despite the CCTV warnings it doesn't look a secure location, and I expect many will carry their bikes up the steps and keep them in their flats.
