Parking Areas
Parking Areas

At the present day most of the interior areas of the site are used as parking spaces. Also they provide access to some market places that are under the structure of the railway bridge.



Schipka Pass
Schipka Pass
This area is located exactly under the railway bridge structure, and is occupied by retail space, mainly used during weekends. From this point is possible to detect a level difference of 3mts. between London Rd. and the the interior of the site, exposing part of the structure of the Trongate tunnel built at the end of the XIX century.

Argyle St.
Argyle St. & Trongate
The clearly defined urban profile of Argyle St. fades when it meets Trongate, here the streets divide between Gallowgate and London Rd. providing a set up for a public space that was an important part of the city until the end of the XIX century, and now completely underrated.
