The Church of Saint Paul on Shettleston Road in Glasgow. Created by the legendary Gillespie, Kidd and Coia, and constructed in 1958, it's a stunning example of modern church design. The central sculpture of Christ on the Cross was created by Jack Mortimer.

The old and new sections of the Theatre Royal in Glasgow. Originally built in 1867, the corner section was added in 2014, and was designed by Page\Park . While it's in a very different style, it maintains the older roofline and continues the long Glaswegian architectural tradition of having a distictive feature corner on important buildings at major road junctions.
IntroductionAmong the many architectural styles of the 20th century, few are as distinctive and refined as Art Deco. Born in the 1920s and 1930s, this movement combined artistic creativity with technical innovation, perfectly capturing the energy and elegance of its time. #ArtDeco #MiamiBeach #modernarchitecture #Urbanheritage

The Science Mall and the Glasgow Tower, part of the Glasgow Science Centre on Pacific Quay in Glasgow, looking spectacular against blue skies.
In my opinion, Glasgow's streetscape is much poorer and less distinctive because of it. Would it really cost developers that much more to include a feature corner on new buildings? Maybe it's something that the city planners should start insisting on to help maintain the city's distinctive feel. Or maybe it's just me that feels this way.
One of my favourite characteristics of Glasgow's traditional architecture is the prominance given to corners, where architects often used major features, such as corner towers, turrets, and cupolas, to mark them. It's something you can see across the city, such as on the right here in Govan. However, it's something you rarely see on newer developments, such as the one on the left.

Designed by Page & Park, and constructed in 1994, this building manages to look contemporary, thanks to the sculptural work by Alexander Stoddart and Jack Sloan, while still sitting comfortably between its Georgian (right) and Victorian (left) neighbours. It was built to fill a gap created when the previous building occupying the site burned down in 1992.
This one will not be to everyone's taste, but I kind of like this building on Glassford Street in Glasgow. It's quite reminiscent of Gillespie, Kidd and Coia's 1970 BOAC building on nearby Buchanan Street. The ground floor shop front does rather let it down, though.

Love the way the architect of this tenement building in the Govan area of Glasgow has used a column of bay windows to pivot it around a curving junction between two roads. It's the little details like this that help to really make a streetscape, and that are all to often missing from modern buildings. It's also a great organisation occupying the ground floor!
@UndisScot Covered in some detail in Barnabas Calders 'Raw Concrete' a very interesting story.
