Glasgow City Council agreed earlier this year that the site at the junction of Newlands Road and Tankerland Road can be used as a residential development.

The land currently contains a single storey building previously used for engineering purposes by Weir Pumps. It has a paved car park above it.

Now the plans for apartments in a four/five-storey building have been detailed in new designs by Thomson Hunter Architects.

A statement by the applicant’s planning consultants Iceni Projects: “The proposed development would bring a vacant brownfield site in a highly accessible area into positive use by providing high-quality flatted residential development.

“The density of the proposed development is considered to be appropriate for this sustainable location which benefits from close proximity to amenities and services and excellent proximity to public transport routes.”
