Glasgow Science Centre rotating tower to reopen after £1.8m revamp

Scotland’s tallest free-standing building will be fully operational and open to visitors once again next summer.

This is good news as so many people on our tours ask about it and by extension surely huge numbers of visitors to the city are puzzled by it. Perhaps it was a step too far, a fanciful gimmick.
