Scope and Content Warehouse (Bonded), Nos 34-38 Cadogan Street, Glasgow This building was constructed in 1898 for Robert Brown Ltd, whisky merchants, to designs by Robert Ewan, architect. It was commissioned at the height of the Scotch whisky boom of the 1890s, but completed at the time of its collapse. Browns moved to more modest premises and sold this building. This view, looking north west shows the Cadogan Street frontage of the building, which is faced with red sandstone. The mildly French Renaissance style was typical of the period. The area was partly redeveloped in the 1960s, the building to the left being one of Glasgow's first post-war multi-storey car parks. This building was in 1966 occupied by David J Clark, Ltd, general printers, manufacturing stationers and Christmas card manufacturers. It has since been demolished and the site redeveloped.
