Synopsis
Excerpt from The Building News and Engineering Journal, Vol. 85: July to December, 1903
Mr. John Fairweather, 136, Welling ton-street, Glasgow, has been appointed architect to the Glasgow East End Industrial Exhibition, which opens next December. Four competitive designs were submitted to the exhibition council, and from these the council selected those of Mr. Fairweather, as being the most practical and suitable for the exhibition. Much originality and resource was shown in the adaptation of the present buildings and grounds, and in the treatment of the entrance facade and concert-hall. The latter is designed to accommodate persons, and the platform, in addition to the usual accessories, will have a fine orchestral organ.
