Princes SquarePrinces Square is a shopping centre on Buchanan Street Glasgow. It was developed in 1986. The five-storey, retail centre occupies an old cobbled square dating from 1841, and was made by enclosing the square below a new clear glass domed roof. The original sandstone facades were preserved around the modern interior. The centre is adorned with decorative glass, tiling, lighting, timber and metalwork, designed by artists and craftsmen.

This tower is on the bank of the River Clyde in Glasgow near the Glasgow Science Centre. It is 127 metres tall. It holds a Guinness World Record for being the tallest tower in the world in which the whole structure can rotate 360 degrees.
