The public are being asked for their views on plans to build over 1,000 new homes and a hotel on the banks of the River Clyde.
Yorkhill Quay has been earmarked as the location for a new residential-led development featuring a 200-bed hotel, 1,100 homes and leisure venues.
The land, located on the northern banks of the River Clyde in the west end of Glasgow, between the Riverside Museum and the Scottish Event Campus, is currently derelict and has been earmarked for development under Peel L&P’s masterplan for Glasgow Waters.
The development aims to help repopulate and reactivate the waterfront, connecting with the surrounding attractions including the Riverside Museum, Clydeside Distillery and SWG3.
It will be within walking distance of key tourist attractions with Govan, across the new pedestrian bridge, the SEC Events Campus, River Kelvin walkways and neighbouring communities in Partick and Finnieston.
The proposed 1,100 homes will consist of open market, build to rent and co-living residences.
Brian Lavalette, Peel L&P’s Property Director for Scotland said: “We’re fully committed to the Clyde Mission and have been working closely with the Scottish Government and local council on our plans for the Glasgow Waters area which includes Yorkhill Quay and Castlebank Quay.
"Our vision is to create a sustainable environment for local people to enjoy. We will actively seek opportunities to supply our developments with low carbon, locally-generated energy and to use energy in a responsible way where possible. We welcome thoughts from the local community on our plans for Yorkhill Quay.”
Local residents are being asked to share their views and provide feedback by visiting the public consultation website for the scheme.
The public consultation will run from November 9 to November 30. The email inbox will accept comments until 4 December 2020. Residents can provide feedback via the website or email: advice@mcinally-associates.co.uk.
