Plans have been unveiled for the redevelopment of the former Marks and Spencer store on Sauchiehall Street.
The proposals would see a large unit for a new retailer to maintain activity at street level as well as recreating the former arcade and providing a publicly accessible connection between Sauchiehall Street and Renfrew Street. The upper levels of the former M&S building would have student and potentially other residential accommodation for around 500 residents, complemented by a spacious rooftop terrace and garden.
The development is being brought forward by Fusion Students, one of the UK’s leading residential and student housing developers and operators. Offering high quality student accommodation and first-class amenities, the group, which was founded in 2013, delivers a unique student experience in a healthy, social and vibrant environment.
