Princes Square, Category B listed shopping center in Buchanan Street, Glasgow, Scotland
The interior space spans five stories with 112,500 square feet of retail area beneath a glass domed roof and vaulted ceiling structure.
The building, designed by architect John Baird in the 1840s, underwent substantial renovation in 1988, transforming the original cobbled square into a modern retail complex.
The renovation project incorporated artistic elements through decorative glass, tiling, lighting, timber, and metalwork created by local craftsmen throughout the interior spaces.
The shopping center operates from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM for retail stores, while dining establishments remain open until 10:30 PM for evening visitors.
The 1999 expansion required excavation of original building cellars to create additional retail space, extending the center toward Queen Street with new gallery access points.
