Most of the tenements were slums!! That's why they were ripped down. I'm sure the poor people who had to live in them were glad to see them go!

you are so wrong,the people of glasgow where never so happy to live in the tennements,a great sense of belonging.the hippy labour planners decided to rip the heart out of the glasgow psyche by building horrendous housing estates in the middle of nowhere,but if they were smart they could have saved a lot of money by modernising some of the beautiful victorian "slums" as you call them.
