Eighteenth century Glasgow was widely admired as 'one of the most beautiful small towns in Europe'. Broad, gridded streets had been constructed westwards from the old High Street with handsome houses, offices, shops and warehouses. By 1800 the city had a population of about 70,000 and was growing rapidly as navigation improvements on the Clyde brought new opportunities for its merchants. There was an increasing need for other amenities suited to an increasingly sophisticated town. The Adam brothers were responsible for a number of buildings and development proposals in Glasgow, including the Trades Hall (1791-94) and the Infirmary (1792-4). The former survives. The latter was demolished to make way for the present Royal Infirmary.
