Glasgow
The building that now houses Caffè Nero on St Enoch Square is in fact the original 1896 booking office and main entrance to the Glasgow Subway, one of the most distinctive pieces of transport architecture in the city.
It was designed by James Miller, and its turrets, gables and ornate detailing made it the showpiece of the system.
During the major Subway rebuild of the late 1970s, the entire underground station was replaced, but the surface building was Category A listed, so it couldn’t be demolished. Engineers jacked it up and suspended it in mid‑air while the new station box was excavated beneath it.
After the rebuild, the old entrance no longer led directly to the platforms. Instead, it became from 1980 until 2008, the SPT Travel Information Centre
In December 2009, the building was converted into a Caffè Nero, which is how most people encounter it today. Despite the change of use, it remains a Category A listed landmark and one of the most recognisable survivors of Victorian Glasgow transport architecture.

Will of the People

Govan, Glasgow
The sculptor, Andrew Brown, designed the group to show “Mrs Barbour’s Army”, the ordinary women, men, and children who marched, protested, and resisted evictions during the rent strikes. The children in the sculpture stand for:
the families threatened with eviction
the young people who joined the marches
the moral force of the community
the idea that the struggle was for future generations
The placard this young boy holds, “The will of the people is the law”, echoes the democratic, grassroots nature of the movement.
