Tenements at Glenraith Square

In the 1970s and 1980s Craigend was considered a high amenity area due to the large number of back and front door houses, compared to tenements in the neighbouring areas of Ruchazie and Garthamlock.[2] The building fabric of Craigend is now somewhat poorer than these areas which as they have been revigorated and rebuilt[3] as part of the city's East End regeneration scheme.

Craigend has three schools, Sunnyside and Avenue End (which are non-denominational) and St Rose of Lima (Roman Catholic).
