The Albion Street Building
The category-A listed building at 195 Albion Street was later used by the Glasgow Evening Times and from July 1980 by the Glasgow Herald, whereupon it became known as the Herald building. The nine-storey building, built by Beaverbrook in 1937 and extended in 1955, was refurbished in 2004 at a cost of £25 million and turned into an apartment block housing 149 apartments.

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or building:
“There was an Old Man who supposed,
That the street door was partially closed;”
—Edward Lear (1812–1888)
“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
