Bow's Emporium, 61 High Street, Glasgow

Bow's Emporium is a later 19th century, three-storey and attic warehouse that was altered in 1908 by the architectural firm Burnet Boston and Carruthers. The building features rendered painted walling and a well-designed cast iron columned ground floor with a modern glazed frontage.

The elevation facing Bell Street consists of 12 bays, while the High Street elevation has 9 bays, highlighted by a central full-height arched window. All windows are single light and have been reglazed with modern pivot sashes. On the High Street side, the windows are flanked by giant order pilasters and are recessed. The Bell Street elevation includes masonry panels between the windows, with the second-floor windows being plain.

There is a cornice above the ground and first floors, with cill courses on the second floor. The eaves cornice features a deep parapet, and the dormers have pediments, with the angle dormers being more decorative and adorned with cartouches. The roofs are mansard slate roofs, with French roofs at the angles.
