North Glasgow College
This building wasn't always a seat of learning, originally being built in 1909 as the Administrative and Drawing Offices of the former North British Locomotive Company of Scotland. Directly across the street (to the left of picture) was the Hyde Park Works, where many railway engines were built. In a strange quirk of fate, after the old locomotive works were demolished and the site cleared, it is the college that is expanding, and a new campus is being built to replace the current red standstone building.

Former North British Locomotive Company HQ
This building, designed by famous Scottish railway architect James Miller, opened in 1904 as the HQ of the North British Locomotive Company who had the largest locomotive works in Europe at that time. The works finally closed in 1961, NBLC having failed to make a successful transition from steam to diesel power. The building was bought by Glasgow Corporation and has served as a college under various different names until the present day North Glasgow College moved out in 2009.
