Wow! I have often wondered what would become of the ruined building that will now be completely transformed. A lot of thought seems to have gone into this.

Locally distinct, human-scaled and beautifully detailed, the refurbished former Pathology building will help to off-set the coarse and sterile science park aesthetic of that already delivered.
The developments along Church Street may be the only saving grace in an otherwise could-be-anywhere assemblage.

Another aspect of the Gilmorehill masterplan, or parameter plan as it is called, is that it is clearly too vague a plan to make the interstitial spaces vibrant, occupied and vital. The parameter plan has called for entrances to be placed at 'nodal' points - ie at the corners. But so what? They are glazed and occupied but barely active. And after hours pretty much completely non-active. The large scale footprints (across practically every building) with single point of access means that the rest of the building perimeter is sterilised and about 1/4 or so set aside as servicing. This simply cannot create great and lively places that the early masterplan(s) envisaged. This sterility can be seen already in the main plaza - St Mungo Sq I think they're calling it. Even on the sunniest evening at the height of term time, this is a place folk just don't particularly like hanging out in. The bland corporate facade of the Keystone Building with another grand single point of access will do nothing to alleviate this issue. The square itself is mis-scaled too.
In terms of creating an industrial anywhere-kind-of-architecture - with giant footprints to turn out graduates like sausages - and sterile inbetween spaces, they have succeeded. They have failed singularly to capture anything of the wonderful collegiate spaces of Professors Square or the Quads in the main building. This is not to say that that they should be duplicating Scots Baronial or Gothic styles - that would be ridiculous. But to study and understand what makes those spaces great places to be has clearly been lost in all the corporate procurement.
For one of the city's most august and supposedly enlightened patrons, they have created an artless and soulless desert . And a middling expensive one at that.
