24 Vinicombe Street, Botanic Garden Garage, Category A listed architectural structure in Glasgow, United Kingdom.

The Botanic Gardens Garage features green and white faience with substantial glazing across three central bays of its two-story, five-bay facade.

Built between 1906 and 1912 by architect David Valentine Wyllie, this structure holds recognition as Glasgow's earliest remaining purpose-built motor garage.

The garage exemplifies early 20th-century architectural innovation through its combination of Italian Romanesque elements and modern construction techniques.

Located at 24 Vinicombe Street, the building now houses three restaurants, a gym, and community offices following its recent restoration.

The garage incorporated an advanced ramp system through an adjacent tenement's pend, establishing it among Europe's first multi-story parking facilities.

The city offers photographers a mix of Gothic churches, sandstone buildings, and green spaces along the River Clyde. The route includes the 12th-century cathedral and the adjacent Necropolis with its monuments on a hillside. Kelvingrove Museum displays Spanish Baroque architecture, while the University of Glasgow presents Gothic towers and courtyards. The Botanic Gardens house Victorian glasshouses with iron and glass structures. The Riverside Museum documents the city's industrial history, and modern venues like the SSE Hydro and Clyde Auditorium complete the route. The collection covers religious, academic, and industrial architecture, along with parks and cemeteries.
