The Sixty Steps are a much-loved feature of Glasgow's West End. The steps which connect Kelvinside Terrace to Garriochmill Road were designed by Alexander "Greek" Thomson in the 1870s to provide access to the original Queen Margaret Bridge. The bridge across the River Kelvin has since been demolished, and the Greek Thomson Sixty Steps are currently in need of restoration.
