It is the 100 years since Maclean's death
Councillor Ferguson is proposing that Maclean’s life be reflected in some of the regeneration work being carried out in Pollokshaws, with a decision then taken in time for the St Andrew’s day anniversary of his death.
Maclean was born in Pollokshaws, then part of Renfrewshire, on 14th August 1879. He died on 30th November 1923, in Pollokshaws, which had been incorporated into Glasgow in 1912.history “Right now, it’s up for discussion how we do that. But it is entirely fitting that he should be remembered in the neighbourhood where he was born and died and where the ongoing regeneration work gives us an opportunity to do just that.
