Description
101, 103, and 103A St Vincent Street in Glasgow is a classical commercial building designed by James Thomson of Baird and Thomson in 1876. This four-storey structure features a façade with 11 x 11 bays, constructed of ashlar stone that is channelled at the first floor. The building has sash and case windows, with a cornice at the ground floor and a cill band at the first floor. The first floor also has roll moulded window arrises and a plain moulded entablature topped with a mutule cornice.
On the second floor, there is a moulded cill band, and the bays are divided by a giant order of Corinthian pilasters that rise through the third floor, banded between floors. The pilasters are adorned with sculpted anthemia above the second-floor windows, which have roll moulded and architraved designs. The third-floor windows feature a moulded cill band with roll moulded arrises.
The main entablature is detailed with a bold rosette, a panelled frieze, a dentil band, and a modillion cornice. The parapet is panelled with piers and is partly balustraded. The roof is steeply pitched with a piended and platform slate design, and it includes corniced stacks. The design and detailing of this building are echoed in nearby structures on Renfield Street, while the treatment along the lane is simpler.
