Description
26 and 28 King Street in Glasgow is an Edwardian Free style warehouse designed by John McKissack and Son between 1899 and 1902 for the City Improvements Trust. The building is five stories tall with an attic and features 14 bays arranged in a 2-1 (canted)-8-1 (canted)-2 configuration. It is constructed from red sandstone ashlar, with shops located on the ground floor.
All windows are framed with architraves, with pediments on the first floor and cornices on the third. The fourth-floor windows are round-arched with archivolts, while the outer bays have canted oriel windows on the first, second, and third floors. The fourth-floor windows feature bold keystones. The building includes a mix of single and tripartite sash and case windows, with 2-pane lower sashes and 12-pane upper sashes. Each floor has cill bands, and there is a main cornice along with a deep plain parapet. Shaped gables across the canted and flanking bays contain bipartite windows with strapwork windowheads.
Inside, the structure is supported by cast-iron columns. The return elevation to 62 Parnie Street is simpler in detail, featuring a six-bay design and a glass-roofed gallery in the attic.
