What Is And What Should Never Be: Glasgow's Eyesorest Buildings
There are some buildings in Glasgow which are so bad that I actually curse out loud whenever I see them. These are buildings which make me want to grab the throat of the architect who designed them and yell into his face 'Your building f*cking sucks!', and then bite off all of his fingers. I hate them. I really do. I hate them even more than I hate the haemorrhoids which will take up residency in my arse in a couple of decades from now.
Maybe you feel the same. Maybe there are some buildings in this city which fart in your face whenever you look at them. If so then hang the bastards here. Better to do that than spend time in jail.
Here's one f*cker I really detest...

Jurys Inn, Jamaica Street
I would say that this building is the visual equivalent of being trapped inside Val Doonican's underpants.

+1 for Jurys Inn. Horrible building.
I quite like the glass sided elevations of Cineworld especially at night.
This Holiday Inn Express sucks as well...

Incredibly, this development is more terrible than Anne Widdecombe in suspenders. To paraphrase George Orwell - it is a beige jackboot stamping on a human face forever.

I didn't know Southplace Homes were responsible for Mizu until now. If one good thing came out of the credit crunch, it was the demise of those bastards.

I admire your optimism, Gommsta.
However, for me there are buildings in Glasgow which are irredeemably awful. If they possessed consciousness then I suspect that they would revolt at their own existence and cry out to be annihilated. For example...
Graham Hills Building, Strathclyde University
If this building became flesh then it would be John Major. Never look at it when it's raining, or you will lose the will to live.
I'm working in an office on Hydepark Street in Finnieston today and can see that piece of shite out my window. I was actually thinking about starting a thread about all the crap buildings around here and then I logged on and found this one. Just over the river from here there's the Etap hotel and the Alea Casino. I would like to cause untold pain to the troglodyte that let those two dangleberries get through planning. I don't want to post pics, it would cause me too much sorrow.Mizu, Finnieston, 2006 (Southplace Homes)...

Couple of threads weve had on here before for all you youngsters. 
No matter what is said, there will always be these buildings that will need to be demolished well before their lifespan, there is no need for them if the buildings were planned rightly and paid more attention to detail and construction impositions by the planners, but i'm affraid these building are passed by snot nosed kids that been given these jobs by not what they know but whats handed to them under the counter < ( they should be hanged upside down and purged) IMO. :rant:

Even now all I can say is: 'Keep the stonework and start again.'
Good topic. I agree with all.

Tay House, Bath Street
After you've been subjected to this building, no one would blame you for dynamiting every salmon river in Scotland.
