#Glasgow - Savings Bank

One of the finest and most delicately ornamented Glasgow-Style buildings in the city, the building was erected by the Glasgow Savings Bank in 1899-1900, as their Anderston Branch.
Built in red Locharbriggs sandstone, like many other bank developments at the time the building was designed as a tenement with the bank and a shop on the ground floor, and was provided with a (by then obligatory) corner tower which identified the bank's presence in the once heavily built and populated street, which lends a Baronial aspect to the building's style.
