Built of <a href="/wiki/Sandstone" title="Sandstone">sandstone</a> or <a href="/wiki/Granite" title="Granite">granite</a>, Scottish tenements are usually three to five stories in height, with two to four flats on each floor. (In contrast, industrial cities in England tended to favour "<a href="/wiki/Back-to-back_houses" class="mw-redirect" title="Back-to-back houses">back-to-back</a>" <a href="/wiki/Terraced_house" title="Terraced house">terraces</a> of <a href="/wiki/Brick" title="Brick">brick</a>.) Scottish tenements are constructed in terraces, and each entrance within a block is referred to as a <i>close</i> or <i>stair</i>—both referring to the shared passageway to the individual flats. Flights of stairs and landings are generally designated common areas, and residents traditionally took turns to sweep clean the floors and, in <a href="/wiki/Aberdeen" title="Aberdeen">Aberdeen</a> in particular, took turns to make use of shared laundry facilities in the "back green" (garden or yard). It is now more common for cleaning of the common ways to be contracted out through a managing agent or "factor". </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/Glasgow" title="Glasgow">Glasgow</a>, where Scotland's highest concentration of tenement dwellings can be found, the urban renewal projects of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s brought an end to the city's slums, which had primarily consisted of older tenements built in the early 19th century in which large <a href="/wiki/Extended_families" class="mw-redirect" title="Extended families">extended families</a> would live together in cramped conditions.

The <a href="/wiki/Glasgow_Corporation" class="mw-redirect" title="Glasgow Corporation">Glasgow Corporation</a> made many efforts to improve the situation, most successfully with the City Improvement Trust, which cleared the slums of the old town, replacing them with what they thought of as a traditional high street, which remains an imposing townscape.

National government help was given following <a href="/wiki/World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a> when Housing Acts sought to provide "homes fit for heroes".

These proved too expensive, so a modern tenement, three stories high, slate roofed and built of reconstituted stone, was re-introduced and a <a href="/wiki/Slum_clearance" title="Slum clearance">slum clearance</a> programme initiated to clear areas such as the <a href="/wiki/Calton,_Glasgow" title="Calton, Glasgow">Calton</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Garngad" class="mw-redirect" title="Garngad">Garngad</a>. </p><p>After <a href="/wiki/Second_World_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Second World War">World War II</a>, more ambitious plans, known as the <a href="/wiki/Bruce_Plan" class="mw-redirect" title="Bruce Plan">Bruce Plan</a>, were made for the complete evacuation of slums for modern mid-rise housing developments on the outskirts of the city. However, the central government refused to fund the plans, preferring instead to depopulate the city to a series of <a href="/wiki/New_towns_in_the_United_Kingdom" title="New towns in the United Kingdom">New Towns.</a><sup id="cite_ref-autogenerated2_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-autogenerated2-36"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-37" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-37"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Again, economic considerations meant that many of the planned "New Town" amenities were never built in these areas. These housing estates, known as "schemes", came therefore to be widely regarded as unsuccessful; many, such as <a href="/wiki/Castlemilk" title="Castlemilk">Castlemilk</a>, were just dormitories well away from the centre of the city with no amenities, such as shops and <a href="/wiki/Public_houses" class="mw-redirect" title="Public houses">public houses</a> ("deserts with windows", as <a href="/wiki/Billy_Connolly" title="Billy Connolly">Billy Connolly</a> once put it). High-rise living too started off with bright ambition—the Moss Heights, built in the 1950s, are still desirable—but fell prey to later economic pressure. Many of the later tower blocks were poorly designed and cheaply built and their anonymity caused some social problems. The demolition of the tower blocks in order to build modern housing schemes has in some cases led to a re-interpretations of the tenement. </p><p>In 1970, a team from <a href="/wiki/Strathclyde_University" class="mw-redirect" title="Strathclyde University">Strathclyde University</a> demonstrated that the old tenements had been basically sound, and could be given new life with replumbing providing modern kitchens and bathrooms.<sup id="cite_ref-autogenerated2_36-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-autogenerated2-36"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>35<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The Corporation acted on this principle for the first time in 1973 at the <i>Old Swan Corner</i>, <a href="/wiki/Pollokshaws" title="Pollokshaws">Pollokshaws</a>.

Later, privately owned tenements benefited from government help in "stone cleaning", revealing a honey-coloured sandstone behind the presumed "grey" tenemental facades.

Until little more than a year ago its dark burrows harbored a colony of blind beggars, tenants of a blind landlord, old Daniel Murphy, whom every child in the ward knows, if he never heard of the President of the United States. "Old Dan" made a big fortune—he told me once four hundred thousand dollars—out of his alley and the surrounding tenements, only to grow blind himself in extreme old age, sharing in the end the chief hardship of the wretched beings whose lot he had stubbornly refused to better that he might increase his wealth. Even when the <a href="/wiki/Metropolitan_Board_of_Health" title="Metropolitan Board of Health">Board of Health</a> at last compelled him to repair and clean up the worst of the old buildings, under threat of driving out the tenants and locking the doors behind them, the work was accomplished against the old man's angry protests. He appeared in person before the Board to argue his case, and his argument was characteristic. "I have made my will," he said. "My monument stands waiting for me in Calvary. I stand on the very brink of the grave, blind and helpless, and now (here the pathos of the appeal was swept under in a burst of angry indignation) do you want me to build and get skinned, skinned? These people are not fit to live in a nice house. Let them go where they can, and let my house stand." In spite of the genuine anguish of the appeal, it was downright amusing to find that his anger was provoked less by the anticipated waste of luxury on his tenants than by distrust of his own kind, the builder. He knew intuitively what to expect. The result showed that Mr. Murphy had gauged his tenants correctly.<sup id="cite_ref-40" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-40"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>39<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>Many campaigners, such as <a href="/wiki/Upton_Sinclair" title="Upton Sinclair">Upton Sinclair</a> and <a href="/wiki/Jacob_Riis" title="Jacob Riis">Jacob Riis</a>, pushed for reforms in tenement dwellings.

This is because small and medium-sized construction companies have technology, but they lack the capital to build large complexes in large cities. The better the location, the more expensive the apartment is, and the more expensive the apartment complex built by a large construction company<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and with a large number of households. Also, even the same type of flat in the same complex is not all of the same price. Due to problems such as the right to sunlight and prospects, the low-rise households on the first and third floors are generally the cheapest, and the higher they go, the more expensive they become.<sup id="cite_ref-48" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-48"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In addition, the price varies depending on other conditions such as the viewing area and the direction of the house, such as south, east, west, and north. The upper floors with a south-facing view are the most expensive. Apartment sales and lease prices are actually the largest and most stable assets owned by a middle-class family in Korea, symbolizing the social status of a family, which forms a class and determines life satisfaction. For this reason, the Korean people have no choice but to react very sensitively to apartment prices.<sup id="cite_ref-49" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-49"><span
