Glasgow's merchant city...

The Merchant City is the Covent Garden area of Glasgow... a vibrant and viable alternative to Glasgow's trendy West End...
The Merchant City offers great restaurants, high end shopping (including Armani and Versace stores) and various Arts festivals...
My younger son is now lucky enough to live here...
Merchant City is a modern name and historically the area was called "Trongate", "the Tron" or "Glasgow Cross"...
It was not always a " des-res" area!
We had a lovely meal at Tony Macaroni's tonight to celebrate all the young ones going back to Uni...
