ABSTRACT
This chapter presents the application of the dual nature of public space theory on three case studies, created as part of the Clyde's regeneration in Glasgow, Scotland. The chapter analyses three particular locations, through the dual nature of public space framework. The case study of three waterfront sites is Pacific Quay, Glasgow Harbour and Broomielaw. The three case studies can be seen as representative for the hard and troublesome journey that Glasgow has undertaken from a dying, former successful industrial centre into a contemporary, vibrant post-industrial city. The Pacific Quay site shows the increased concentrated focus towards enhancing the media service economy and the touristic base; Glasgow Harbour is illustrative for the new trend of creating up market, luxury housing while Broomielaw is part of the last decades strategy to establish Glasgow as a financial and business centre.
