They've blown them all sky high...
Lee Munro was born in Basil Spence's Queen Elizabeth flats in Hutchesontown-Gorbals, and he's made this montage of photos to commemorate them, long after their mid-90s demolition. As he says at the end, 'it was an amazing place with amazing people'. It's a bit heavy on the old Ken Burns effect but the pics are great and the sentiment is heartwarming. And Sky High is a bit of a classic too. The pic at the top of this article was taken from here (where there's plenty more beauties!) and was one of the original architect's perspective drawings.
