Hielanman's Umbrella Plans on Hold | Glasgow News
Description
Glasgow’s iconic Hielanman’s Umbrella under Central Station is on hold—but the dream isn’t dead. Plans for a retro 1950s makeover with neon art, updated shopfronts, and a vintage sign are paused due to budget constraints, but Network Rail and City Council are still exploring ways to bring key elements to life in future funding rounds. While major work waits, improvements like better lighting, cleaning, and new businesses are already underway—with thoughtful design considerations for homeless users. The vision remains alive, evolving as the city moves forward.
