Fire ruined the Glasgow School of Art in the city of Glasgow, Scotland on May 23, 2014. The famous school is visited by 20,000 tourists every year. The historic site was build by famous builder/architect Charles Rennie MacKintosh in 1868 and the century old building still housed students of art today. Notable known actors like Peter Capaldi who starred in "Dr. No." Students and many onlookers wept to see the blaze and smoke took away memories of such a prestigious and historic icon. Firemen tried desperately to extishquish flames, but the damage was too far gone to save it. What caused the fire was not known. {Photo of Glasgow School of Art before destroyed by fire}
