A “notorious” slum tenement block in Govanhill where flats were bought by the council is set to be refurbished and retrofitted to reduce energy bills for future tenants.
Compulsory purchase plans were approved for seven flats at 97 Westmoreland Street, which had been neglected by private landlords, three years ago.
Now, all eight homes in the close are owned by Govanhill Housing Association and bosses have submitted an application to redevelop the building.
