A new Clyde-side hotel could transform the Glasgow City Centre skyline.
New images submitted within planning documents for 8 Dixon Street - just off St Enoch Square - reveal the look of a new 20-level hotel which features a rooftop restaurant.
Plans submitted to Glasgow City Council propose the demolition of the present office and retail building at the address, ahead of a substantial development which is also set to include a ground-floor restaurant, bakery and cafe, penthouse suites, a gym, and meeting rooms.
The proposals, submitted on behalf of Clyde Dixon Land & Property Ltd and Citihome Glasgow Ltd, state: "The new CITIHOME Building will have a ground floor restaurant, bakery and cafe and there will inevitably be an outdoor extension of these facilities. It is anticipated therefore that any proposed public realm project in Dixon Street will be elegant and a quality intervention to reflect the crisp new contemporary buildings around it.
"Among these features there will be a glass roof top restaurant where diners can admire the lively “City Lights” threading through the City as well as the shimmering silently in the dark flowing river Clyde."
The proposal in question - for the demolition of the present building at 8 Dixon Street - is linked to a previous application for a hotel, on behalf of Stallan Brand, which included for commercial and retail space at the ground floor at 2-8 Dixon Street. Glasgow City Council approved the plans - with conditions - in December 2017.
The new application to demolish the premises at 8 Dixon Street was submitted at the end of last week, and is now under consideration by Council planners.
