Work begins to demolish historic block in Glasgow after it was gutted in devastating vape shop fire... with workers removing one brick at a time
Demolition of a historic Glasgow building, severely damaged by a vape shop fire, has begun with workers carefully removing bricks.Summary
Demolition work has commenced on the remains of a landmark building in Glasgow, destroyed by a fire that originated in a vape shop. Workers are meticulously removing bricks, starting with a precarious chimney, over 150ft in the air. The demolition is necessary due to the building's instability and to allow for the full reopening of Glasgow Central Station, which has been partially closed since Sunday. Network Rail anticipates the station will remain partially shut until at least Wednesday, with any phased reopening dependent on demolition progress. Despite the extensive damage, firefighters successfully prevented the blaze from spreading to nearby iconic buildings, and no injuries were reported. Glasgow City Council prioritizes public safety and is providing support to affected businesses during the recovery and rebuilding process.
