What Next for Glasgow City Centre

Join GCHT for an in-person panel discussion that asks the question, “What Next for Glasgow’s City Centre?”
 
The panelists will look at the challenges currently affecting the city centre such as the legacy of the Covid 19 pandemic, the high number of vacant buildings and the decline in shopfront retail, as well as how solutions to these challenges can help tackle the climate crisis.
 
After hearing from our expert panelists, we’ll open it up to you for questions and discussion about how we can shape a city centre that maintains its historic character and is accessible, safe and functional for Glasgow’s people and visitors.
 
The event will be chaired by Bailie Christy Mearns, Depute Lord Provost
 
The panellists will be:
Paola Pasino, Glasgow City Council
Thierry Lye, Chair of the New Glasgow Society
Euan Leitch, Chief Executive of SURF - Scotland's Regeneration Forum

Save Glasgow's Green Space

Join Merchant City Park this Saturday between 12pm and 3pm outside iCafe Merchant City. Join us in objecting to plans to build housing on the Ingram St car park site, which would see our beloved trees cut down and our vision for a positive green space in Merchant City destroyed.

At their meeting on 31st May, MCTCC reaffirmed their commitment agreed at their January 2019 meeting “their wish to see the site adjacent to the Old fruit Market bounded by Candleriggs, Ingram & Albion streets become a green, multi function community park.”
