Shawlands Civic Square

As part of the roll out of further public realm works, the Action Plan proposes to create a new civic square for the Southside in front of Langside Hall which the partners believe could form the exciting heart of the emerging Cultural Quarter of Shawlands.

• The Pollokshaws Road/Langside Avenue junction is a space which is already home to:
• Langside Hall the key civic building of the area,
• the Shed which has a long track record of club nights, live theatre, dance and craft events,
• Sweeney's on the Park is becoming a vital attraction for new song writers, and
• Glad Café is a destination for new experimental musicians, art, speakers and debate.

The Council believe the potential public space could provide a key attraction on the gateway to the city centre and Southside destinations. A well designed space also offers the potential to bring the Queens Park into the heart of the Shawlands town centre and bring more visitors to the area.
