Dangerous tower block in Glasgow to be demolished this week


Earlier this year a tower block in Glasgow located at London Road had to be evacuated. The building was deemed unsafe after tenants noticed large cracks appearing in the walls seemingly overnight. The owners were given until April 27th to either repair or demolish the building. That order lapsed with no action having been taken.

Now the local council has decided the block needs to come down and the wheels have been set in motion for the demolition to happen this week. The quick turnaround is due to the fact the building continues to show signs of movement, suggesting it could soon come down on its own potentially causing injury to passers by.
