Millenium space - Govanhill

Ever passed the above and wondered what is was or is for? In 1999 five areas of Glasgow were designated for renewal under the Millennium Space project, for Glasgow's year of architecture and design . One of these areas was Govanhill.
'The Millenium Hut' was designed by Studio Kap Architects in collaboration with the artist Claire Barclay to provide a community facility, with in the area.. A garden store, workshop, library, growing shelves and viewing platform are contained within a timber three storey structure of new and recycled elements.

Is the structure ever open to the public and is it still in use? Does anyone know?

So did I! It doesn't seem to be big enough for all those things mentioned. It looks to be in a pitiful state of disrepair every time I drive past.
