About Tradeston
- The Clyde Arc, which connects Tradeston to the north bank of the Clyde at Finnieston, was opened in 2006 and has become one of the most recognisable landmarks on the Glasgow skyline. The bridge's distinctive asymmetric arch, which tilts at an angle of sixty degrees, earned it the affectionate nickname the Squiggly Bridge from Glaswegians — a name that has stuck despite the official designation. Tradeston itself takes its name from the trade that once flowed through this part of the Clyde, and the area was historically associated with the cotton and textile industries that drove Glasgow's early industrial growth. The ongoing regeneration of the south bank of the Clyde, of which Tradeston is a key part, is one of the most ambitious urban renewal projects in Scotland.
