Tenements Talking invites you to walk with us among the tenements and listen to their tumultuous stories.
Tenements Talking is a walking workshop about the transformation of Glasgow’s tenements over the years. During the workshop, we will walk among the tenements as living monuments of the change of Glasgow’s urban scene within the last century.
We will discuss tenements’ stories starting from their construction and 1915 rent strikes which took place in Glasgow tenement neighbourhoods and spread over the UK. We will explore tenements’ adaptation to modern life and technology over the years, and how we can adapt them to respond to climate emergency.
We will meet in front of Hillhead Subway Station and go to the nearby tenement neighbourhood where the workshop will take place.
