About Finnieston
- The Finnieston Crane, which dominates the skyline of this stretch of the Clyde, is one of the most recognisable landmarks in Glasgow and a powerful symbol of the city's industrial past. Built in 1932, the 175-foot cantilever crane was used to load heavy locomotives — built in the nearby locomotive works of Springburn and the wider Glasgow engineering industry — onto ships for export to countries across the British Empire and beyond. At its peak, Glasgow's Clyde shipyards and engineering works produced a significant proportion of the world's ships and locomotives. The crane has been preserved as a listed structure and is now a beloved emblem of Glasgow's transformation from an industrial powerhouse into a creative and cultural city.
