Interactions with Water by Gemma Coyle and the Yoker Community. I pass this sculpture quite regularly as I drive along Dumbarton Road in Glasgow, and it always raises a smile. There's just something I find quite charming about it, possibly the rather cute hedgehogs!

Looking east along Dumbarton Road from Partick Cross in Glasgow this evening as the sun was going down.

Red sandstone tenement, Dumbarton Road, Glasgow.
I love the near symmetry of this building, along with the large windows.
It's also notable that rather than hide the chimney flues behind false windows (as was done in older Glasgow tenements), they've been made into a key design feature of its aesthetic.

One of the many tenement turrets in Glasgow. This one is on Dumbarton Road in Glasgow. These turrets are one of the architectural features that give Glasgow its very distinctive look.

Stained glass window fearuring the Waverley in the Lismore Bar on Dumbarton Road in Glasgow.
This is one of a series of rather brilliant modern stained glass in this particular bar.

How's this for a top floor corner bay window in a tenement building?
I love all the curves and the wind vane on the top of the dome.
For those who are interested, it's on Dumbarton Road in the Knightswood area of Glasgow.

The Lonely Close, Dumbarton Road, Partick, Glasgow
Glasgow tenements were originally built in large, continuous blocks, but over time many have been knocked down, leaving exposed gable ends and sometimes even individual closes standing as lone survivors of what was once there.

Love the pierced stonework on the window lintels of this tenement above the Quarter Gill on Dumbarton Road in Glasgow. A simple but effective way to add a bit of decoration to the building's exterior.
