| Comment | The main reason the area is run down is because of the new motorway built there about 7 or 8 years ago, so there's not much to Cook St other than a throughway for traffic going to/from the motorway.
For that reason the area isn't particularly dodgy, you just won't see many people around after hours, it's not really a residential area. Hence probably not a place to be on your own late at night. I'd happily walk that way, it's certainly safe from central to Bridge St subway (allowing for drunken idiots on Fri/Sat night).
I'd probably just get the subway from Buchanan St to Bridge St or West St depending where exactly you're trying to get to. |
