HECTOR McNeil House — Greenock’s former Central Library building — has been flattened as the first phase of major town centre demolition work nears completion.

The library at Clyde Square opened in 1970 and was converted into local authority offices in 2015.
It has been demolished, along with the ground level commercial units, as part of the £24milllion Central Greenock project.

The eastern section of the Oak Mall is also to be removed, along with the A78 High Street flyover, and the Bullring Roundabout.
A low-level road and traffic light junction will be formed to replace the flyover and roundabout.
A new Oak Mall entrance, additional public areas, and more green spaces will also be created.
