St Mary's Cathedral in Glasgow was designed by George Gilbert Scott for the Scottish Episcopal Church. The text says the building opened on November 9, 1871 and was completed with its spire in 1893. The infobox gives groundbreaking in 1871 and consecration in October 1894, and lists Gothic Revival. The article names no materials.
The spire brings the total height to 207 feet (63 m). The three-manual William Hill organ was rebuilt in 1967 and restored in 1990, and the ten bells include a tenor of 32 hundredweight. It is Category A listed.
The church became a cathedral in 1908. A restoration from the mid-1980s to 2002 covered the chancel, tower, crossing, roof and clerestory, and the spire's topping out was on December 19, 1989. It hosts concerts and art exhibitions. The article gives no hours.
