Green light for Glasgow serviced living complex
Artisan Real Estate has obtained permission from Glasgow City Council to demolish vacant city centre offices and build a huge ‘residential serviced living development’ in its place.
The 248 studio apartments will be built at the corner of St Vincent Street at Pitt Street.
There will be a publicly accessible cafe/bar, reception area, co-work space, a cinema/multi-function room and a gym and wellness studio, plus rooftop amenity space, reGlasgow reports.
Artisan acquired the office buildings in the summer of 2019 and worked with Porter Planning and a design team led by Hawkins\Brown, Atelier 10 and Quattro engineers, to deliver the four-star hotel designed for the Vienna House brand.
A statement submitted alongside their planning application, reads: “Artisan wants to deliver development on this key city centre site in 2021, as the building is now empty, and see residential serviced living as a deliverable response.
“It also offers a wealth of shared facilities, amenities, activities and services to create a more fulfilling, connected and affordable lifestyle for young professionals.”
