FROM THE EDITOR Changing face of the Clydeside

- Deborah Anderson News Editor

NEARLY 30 years on from the Glasgow Garden Festival, the former docks and shipyards have been transforme­d.

From housing developmen­ts to the BBC and STV media hub, and new hotels, the former derelict area has taken on a new lease of life.

Now there are plans for a £10m whisky distillery, restaurant and visitor centre close to the Science Centre and Waverley paddle steamer.

This latest developmen­t is another sign that the waterfront can help this city thrive and the investment should be welcomed.
