6 Finnieston Crane: A Marvel for its Time

The Finnieston crane was completed in 1932 and used all the way up to the 1990s. Its primary function was to basically lift and move heavy machinery during construction products. Even though this crane doesn’t get much use today, it is still one of the biggest in the world. After all, it can lift around 200 tons at once! Right now the crane is in Glasgow and is revered by the people of the area. The crane is seen by the citizens as a symbol of the strong engineering heritage that the area has.
