This place is now shut for some reason. Why?

Because they put it in the wrong place at the wrong time, the Glasgow Science centre is bigger and better. The 'Big Idea' became a bad idea.

The Big Idea was much better than The Glasgow science Centre currently is.

For what it was it was ok but it didn't compare with the science centre which has the Imax and the tower, otherwise it would have have attracted enough people to keep it open. I still say it was built in the wrong place at the wrong time, you could probably make the same argument about the Maritime museum in Irvine since it seems to struggle to keep its doors open.
