Glasgow

Gallowgate, Glasgow Cross

Glasgow's Gallowgate represents a sub-human wasteland of neglect and under-investment.

I could not agree more, its about time GCC cleaned this area up.

Connotations will always have a strong impact on people’s feelings on certain areas. There is very little in the way funding available at the moment so it will take a long time before someone is really willing to commit to regenerating the salt market, the Barra's and the Gallowgate over a sustained period of time. Saying GCC should clean up the place is all good and well but they don't have limitless amounts of money just to deal with one area of Glasgow. There are worse areas of Glasgow, and I am guessing that a lot of their coffers are being spent on the Commonwealth Games site out in Dalmarnock.
