Main contractor named for city's latest Grade A office development

 Bowmer & Kirkland has been named as the main contractor for Grade A Glasgow office development Cadworks.

Real estate investment platform FORE Partnership awarded the £23 million contract for the 96,000 sq ft building at Cadogan Street in the business district.

Work has begun on the speculative development, creating up to 200 construction jobs, and it is expected to be completed for the second quarter of 2021. 

Cadworks is billed as Glasgow's most 'green' office development, with the country's only cycle-in access ramp and comprehensive facilities for cyclists.

FORE managing partner Basil Demeroutis said: "The appointment of Bowmer & Kirkland signalled our readiness to start on site and deliver our flagship Scottish development.

"Cadworks will embody our vision of creating a new way of designing commercial space, one where social responsibility and ethics can be powerful drivers of returns on investment."

Alan Johansen, regional managing director of Bowmer & Kirkland, added: "We are delighted to have been appointed as main contractor for a building that will not only meet the urgent demand for top-quality city centre space, but will also be the country's most sustainable.

"Cadworks is one of the city's most high-profile sites and we look forward to bringing our team's unparalleled expertise to this new and welcome addition to Glasgow's skyline."

Office space at Cadworks is being jointly marketed by GVA, Ryden, and Savills.
