Correct!
The rotundas used house the lift shafts for the tunnel under the Clyde at that point - there's some information about them on Hidden Glasgow.
XFM Scotland is in Four Winds Pavillion (the brick building with the tower on it), and their nearest neighbour (by the river) is the Police Criminal Records Bureau.
You can sort of make it all out on Google Maps - the BBC site is between the Science Centre and Bell's Bridge.

That would be a far more appropriate place to put Radio Clyde, surely?
Incidentally, slightly OT, Scotsport SPL is entertaining tonight (for the wrong reasons, obviously). Jim Delahunt's off with the flu (apparently - although I wonder, given what SMG's been like recently) and of the two presenters left, neither have been trusted to interview the panel. So we've got commentator Archie Macpherson reading Delahunt's autocue, and it just sounds weird.
I also know half the people in the crowd, who are struggling to keep a straight face when that muppet Sinclair starts talking.
SMG haven't had a good night so far - they got stuck after the trail before the programme, then crashed half way through an advert into the ident (presumably because automation had to keep things to time?), and have had numerous problems getting in and out the programme.
Give it 10 years and they'll be like low-budget cable channels - they'll fall off the air for hours at a time and no-one will notice.
Edit - Rob McLean from the Setanta feed sounds very strange on Scottish.
