In contrast to the normative ways of thinking that support the view that urban areas are sustainable and suburban are not, residential preference of people who are able to exercise their choice may demonstrate greater affiliation with suburban rather than with urban areas. This paper analyses the components of residential preferences (attachment, social and environmental context, physical planning issues, and residential mobility) in the two neighbourhoods of urban and suburban type, which are both attractive for the inhabitants.

It was the original main street in medieval times along with the Saltmarket, and links the Cathedral precinct in the North to Glasgow Green and the River Clyde in the South. There are many areas of historical interest along the route including St Mungo’s Cathedral, the Necropolis, Tolbooth and Market Cross. There are also a number of key destinations for people making journeys on foot including Glasgow Royal Infirmary, the High Court, Glasgow College and Strathclyde University. Despite the many reasons for people to visit and walk the street, footfall to and through the area is low, and the space feels neglected.

The publication of burgh records and the old property deeds of town clerks throughout Scotland has resulted in the production of many books relative to burghal life, genealogies, civic and ecclesiastical arrangements, and urban topography of the olden time. The admirable services rendered by Sir James Marwick, town clerk of Glasgow, and Mr. Robert Renwick, depute town clerk, in connection with the editing of local records, have made possible the compilation of a history of Glasgow on a scale of completeness that could not have been attempted ten years ago. For the making of such a history this little book may be of some value in the department of old domestic architecture, as it preserves the recol- lections of a number of informants regarding the pre- Reformation buildings that have been destroyed during the past sixty years.
