73, 75, 77 Tobago Street, Glasgow

73, 75, 77 Tobago Street is a traditional three-storey, three-bay building made of polychrome brick, featuring red and contrasting yellow-white colors. It was built in 1905 by the architect Alexander Adam for James Fraser, a rag and metal merchant. Originally, the building served as a store and stable.

The main street elevation is symmetrical, showcasing giant arched panels in the outer bays that extend from the ground to the second floor. The central bay contains the entrance at ground level. Each bay on the first floor has pairs of windows, while the second floor features two Diocletian windows in the outer bays, flanking two smaller round-arched windows at the center. The side elevations have deep twin gables with symmetrical window arrangements, except for the north-eastern elevation, which is windowless and rendered. The double-pitched roof is partly covered with graded natural slate and black concrete tiles, and it includes concrete coping stones and skewputts. All the windows have been blocked. A gablet with an apex stack that was originally in the central bay of the front elevation has been partly removed and covered as of 2015. There are some brick repairs visible on the ground floor, and a square chimney stack at the rear of the building has been lost since 2015.

The building is shown on the Second Edition Ordnance Survey map 'Lanarkshire Sheet VI.SE', which was revised in 1910 and published in 1914. It is prominently situated on Tobago Street in the east end of Glasgow, with vacant land immediately to the north and south. The surrounding area, which was once industrial, has recently been redeveloped for housing.
