Comment | Maybe people have incredibly short memories, but it's a blessing the George Square design you mention was ultimately binned. It would have turned the square into a hugely sterile, lifeless, grey, windswept space, removing much of what greenery there is.

It's a good thing it got canned. If anything, the decision was made to *avoid* an outcome you describe.
The new plan which is past its final consultation stage and close to tendering for detailed design and construction, is a vast improvement and will involve greening the square even more.
