Laying the Foundation-Stone of the new Municipal Buildings, Glasgow, 1883. On Saturday last, the foundation-stone of the new municipal buildings in George-square, Glasgow, was laid by Lord Provost Ure, with Masonic and civic ceremonies...A Masonic procession, and a procession of the building trades, the textile industries, the metal workers, shipwrights, and miscellaneous trades, with the people in the employ of the Corporation and the Clyde Trust, passed through some of the principal streets, and formed one of the most attractive features of the day's proceedings...The architect of the new Municipal Buildings is Mr. William Young. His designs, in conformity with the plans for the interior prepared by Mr. Carrick, the City Architect, were preferred in competition by the arbitrator, Mr. Charles Barry, President of the Royal Institute of British Architects...The building will contain a grand banqueting-hall, Council chamber, Town Clerk's offices, and those of the City Chamberlain, and of the Finance, Lands, Gas, and Water Departments, and the Public Works. George-square is adorned with several fine statues of eminent men, and is in a central situation'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
