EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 18th of May, 1967, offering a mesmerizing aerial view of Cumbernauld in North Lanarkshire, Scotland. This town holds a significant historical importance as it was established in 1956 to accommodate the overflow population from Glasgow City. The image showcases the meticulous planning and innovative design that went into creating this remarkable community. With its geometric layout and modern architecture, Cumbernauld stands as a testament to urban planning excellence. It's no surprise that this visionary town recently received international recognition by winning a prestigious $25,000 award for being the best designed community in the world. The accolade is well-deserved when you consider how seamlessly Cumbernauld blends residential areas with green spaces and amenities. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at how ahead of its time Cumbernauld was during the 1960s. Its futuristic aesthetic still captivates viewers today, evoking a sense of wonder about what life must have been like for its residents during that era. Thanks to Memory Lane Prints' preservation efforts, we are fortunate enough to witness this snapshot from history—a moment frozen in time when an ambitious vision became reality on Scottish soil.
