Almost 350 new Glasgow flats and houses have been given the go-ahead in the Gorbals by city council planners.
The homes, which border Laurieston, will comprise of 42 houses and 307 apartments, built by Urban Union.
The site is bounded by Eglinton Street, Gorbals Street, Norfolk Street and Cumberland Street.
The development will include one and two-bedroom flats, and three and four-bedroom houses, all for private sale. The plans also feature commercial units at one of the blocks.
Twelve blocks of properties will be built, with a mixture of terraced houses and apartments, with two of the buildings six storeys high.
The design statement said: “The proposals reflect the ambitions of Urban Union and will build on the success of the earlier phases, to promote Laurieston as a diverse urban living quarter.
“There is an ongoing commitment to high quality, crafted architecture, public realm and landscape that is well connected to its local and wider context.
“The development of phase three will have a huge impact at street level, particularly revitalising Norfolk Street and establishing the front edge of Laurieston as characterful, vibrant and active.”
The east of the site was previously occupied by high rise towers. The west side currently has car parking and the Skills Academy building.
The design document adds: “The height of the proposals steps up from the interior to the perimeter edge, creating a bolder urban scaled architecture to the key frontage of the development along Norfolk Street.
“The three-storey housing terraces, appropriately scaled to sit beside Phase 2 neighbours, are bounded by four-storey blocks to Gorbals Street and the eastern edge of the park, and five-storey apartment blocks to Norfolk Street.”
The plans were given the green light by Glasgow City Council on Wednesday (May 18).
