HERE are the latest batch of the photographs taken by former Celtic Director Tom Grant who worked alongside Fergus McCann in the demolition of the old Celtic Park and building the new stadium we all know and love today.
Last week we took you on a journey through the second half of 1994 when the old stadium gradually disappeared from sight. The photographs were strangely wonderful. Then on Tuesday and yesterday we moved into the first four months of 1995 and over three parts we promised to show you the work progressing and Fergus McCann’s dream of a 60,000 seated Paradise coming to fruition.
Here’s the complete story so far…
