Street Lights : 2- Exchange Place at Night
Exchange Place is a short yet historic looking street, joining Buchanan Street to Royal Exchange Square & onwards to Glasgow’s GoMA & Queen Street.
It is probably best known locally for the ‘Art-Deco Styled’ Rogano Restaurant. As well as Starbucks with its uniquely placed (for people gazing) ‘Mid-Floor’ mezzanine level & quiet haven from a busy city on the 1st Floor (so its been said!)

Glasgow’s Mitchell Library at night
The library was established with a bequest from Stephen Mitchell, a wealthy tobacco manufacturer, whose company, Stephen Mitchell and Son, would become one of the constituent members of the Imperial Tobacco Company. It contains the largest public reference library in Europe, with 1,213,000 volumes.
While composed mainly of reference material it also has a substantial lending facility which began in 2005. The original North Street building with its distinctive copper dome surmounted a bronze statue by Thomas Clapperton, entitled Literature, often referred to as Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, opened in 1911. The architectural competition for the library’s design took place in 1906 and was won by William. B. Whitie.
