Previous location
Prior to May 2014 the heliport was located approximately 1.5 mi (2.4 km) East from its present location, within the grounds of the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre and directly across the River Clyde from the Glasgow Science Centre and BBC Scotland's Pacific Quay Studios. Planned future development of the SSEC area enforced the move.
