The Riverside Museum at Pointhouse, located next to the confluence between the River Kelvin and the Clyde houses the transport collection, previously held at the Kelvin Hall which closed in April 2010. This site, where the former A. & J. Inglis shipyard built the PS Waverley, enables the Clyde Maritime Trust's tall ship Glenlee and other visiting craft to berth alongside the museum. The current museum opened on Tuesday 21 June 2011. The Riverside Museum building was designed by Zaha Hadid Architects and engineers Buro Happold. The internal exhibitions and displays were designed by Event Communications, a specialist London-based museum design firm.
