Titan Clydebank, more commonly known as the Titan Crane is a 150-foot-high (46 m) cantilever crane at Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland. It was designed to be used in the lifting of heavy equipment, such as engines and boilers, during the fitting-out of battleships and ocean liners at the John Brown & Company shipyard. It was also the world's first electrically powered cantilever crane, and the largest crane of its type at the time of its completion. Situated at the end of a U-shaped fitting out basin, the crane was used to construct some of the largest ships of the 20th century, including the Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth and Queen Elizabeth 2. The Category A Listed historical structure was refurbished in 2007 as a tourist attraction and shipbuilding museum. It is featured on the current Clydesdale Bank £5 note.

Kilbowie Park, also known as New Kilbowie Park, was a football stadium in Clydebank, Scotland. It was the home ground of Clydebank. New Kilbowie was built for Clydebank Juniors in 1939. In 1964, Clydebank merged with East Stirlingshire and entered the Scottish Football League. A record attendance of 14,900 was set by a visit of Hibernian in February 1965. Floodlights were first used in a match against Sunderland in the same month. The merger collapsed after a legal battle, but Clydebank entered the league in their own right in 1966.Clydebank were promoted to the Premier Division in 1977. A covered plastic-seated stand was built, which was funded by selling star player Davie Cooper for £100,000 to Rangers. To avoid having to apply legislation affecting stadium safety, the club installed wooden benches that reduced the capacity to 9,950. This was below the 10,000 limit at which the legislation started to apply and technically made Kilbowie the first all-seater stadium in the United Kingdom. Clydebank played their last competitive game at Kilbowie against Hamilton Academical in 1996 (1-3). The last game at Kilbowie was a testimonial match later that summer for Ken Eadie, against Rangers (2-3). The ground was sold by club owners, the Steedman family, in 1997. Clydebank endured several seasons groundsharing at Cappielow in Greenock and Boghead Park in Dumbarton.Land was purchased on Great Western Road on the outskirts of the town to construct a new stadium for the club, but the necessary approval was never obtained. The sale of Kilbowie Park was the catalyst for the club's decline, which was finally ended in 2002. The club was purchased from its administrator by Jim Ballantyne, who moved it to Airdrie, North Lanarkshire and renamed it Airdrie United. This was done to replace the Airdrieonians club, which had been liquidated earlier in 2002. Clydebank F.C. was reformed as a junior club by the United Clydebank Supporters and it now plays at Holm Park in Yoker.Kilbowie was purchased by Vico Properties plc, who developed a retail scheme and restaurants on the ground. A single piece of rubble of the old stadium is now on view at the Scottish Football Museum in Hampden Park.

The 20 km long Clyde Waterfront is a section of the River Clyde in Scotland that runs from Glasgow Green in the city's center to Dumbarton on the Firth of Clyde. This is one of Britain's largest urban redevelopment initiatives, with over 200 projects on both banks of the Clyde. [1] Projects are underway all across the Clyde Waterfront neighborhood to change local commerce, housing, tourism, and infrastructure. The planned public and private investment in Clyde Waterfront as of 2008 was pegged at £5–6 billion. [2] The Clyde Waterfront Regeneration project is an ongoing initiative aimed at transforming the waterfront area of Glasgow, Scotland. The project was launched in 2003 and is a long-term effort that involves a range of developments and improvements. Some of the key aspects of the Clyde Waterfront Regeneration project include: New commercial and residential properties: The project has involved the construction of new buildings, including office spaces, residential properties, and hotels. Some notable developments include the Riverside Museum, the Hydro arena, and the Glasgow Science Centre Tower. Public spaces: The project aims to create more public spaces along the waterfront, including parks, walkways, and cycle paths. The Glasgow Harbour development includes a riverside promenade, while the Pacific Quay area features a public plaza and landscaped areas. Infrastructure improvements: The project has also involved significant infrastructure improvements, including the upgrading of roads, bridges, and public transport links. The Clyde Arc, also known as the Squinty Bridge, was built as part of the project and provides a new pedestrian and cycle route across the river.The Clyde Waterfront Regeneration project is a collaboration between Glasgow City Council, Scottish Enterprise, and other partners. It is seen as a key driver of economic growth in the area and has already attracted significant investment from both public and private sectors. As well as supporting inward investment and tourism, the aim of the regeneration of the Clyde is to benefit local communities. It is intended that local people will benefit from the improvements to transport and leisure facilities, shops and businesses, and from new jobs coming into the area. An estimated 50,000 new jobs will be created as businesses relocate in the area and more housing is built. Re-training is vital and a range of support is available locally to make sure residents can exploit the new opportunities as they arise.

John Brown and Company of Clydebank was a Scottish marine engineering and shipbuilding firm. It built many notable and world-famous ships including RMS Lusitania, RMS Aquitania, HMS Hood, HMS Repulse, RMS Queen Mary, RMS Queen Elizabeth and the Queen Elizabeth 2. At its height, from 1900 to the 1950s, it was one of the most highly regarded, and internationally famous, shipbuilding companies in the world. However thereafter, along with other UK shipbuilders, John Brown's found it increasingly difficult to compete with the emerging shipyards in Eastern Europe and the far East. In 1968 John Brown's merged with other Clydeside shipyards to form the Upper Clyde Shipbuilders consortium, but that collapsed in 1971. The company then withdrew from shipbuilding but its engineering arm remained successful in the manufacture of industrial gas turbines. In 1986 it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Trafalgar House, which in 1996 was taken over by Kvaerner. The latter closed the Clydebank engineering works in 2000. Marathon Manufacturing Company bought the Clydebank shipyard from UCS and used it to build oil rig platforms for the North Sea oil industry. Union Industrielle d'Entreprise (UIE) (part of the French Bouygues group) bought the yard in 1980 and closed it in 2001.
