Plans for almost 500 new homes on Clyde as Anderston labelled 'one of fastest-growing districts'

Plans have been unveiled to create a mixed-use development with 500 new homes on the River Clyde.

Located at Central Quay, near Anderston, the development by Summix Capital would include private for-sale residential dwellings with family housing; affordable flexible office space; and purpose-built student accommodation, with commercial space on the ground floor.

The site has lain derelict for a considerable period, and developers say the regeneration would herald a significant investment in the city.

In conjunction with land to the south, it would receive planning permission in principle for a mixed-use development. This includes offices, residential, hotel, and associated ground floor commercial uses with access, parking, landscaping and associated works.

The southern parcel of land has been sold separately to Platform, who are currently constructing 498 build-to-rent (BTR) apartments. It comprises four blocks, one of which, at 20 storeys, is one of Glasgow’s tallest buildings

As part of the pre-application consultation, events will be held on November 24 and January 19, 2023, between 2-7 pm, at '2 Central Quay', located at 89 Hydepark Street. Further information will be advertised to the community closer to the time.

A representative from Summix Capital said: "These exciting proposals represent a significant investment in Glasgow and will serve to regenerate a current brownfield site, providing much-needed housing and commercial space.

“The site has lain derelict for a considerable period of time, and its redevelopment will be a welcome addition to the community. As a company, we are committed to pursuing a Net Zero Carbon strategy by 2030, and this development will be in accordance with this.

"These proposals are at an early design stage, and over the next few weeks, we look forward to engaging in discussions with the local community about how best to progress this."
