Development is now expected to start on the vacant brownfield site.
Plans to build 424 private rent flats in Partick have won final approval following an appeal from the developer after councillors refused them.
The council originally knocked back the bid from KR Developments voicing concerns including lack of suitable accommodation for families and the scale and density not being in keeping with the area.But the Scottish Government has overturned Glasgow City Council’s decision - and the construction of the flats can now go-ahead on the Beith Street site, which has been empty since 2005.
The Scottish Government reporter said findings show “the proposal accords overall with the relevant provisions of the development plan and that there are no material considerations, which would justify refusing to grant planning permission.” It also claimed the development offered an “appropriate mix of accommodation” with a “good proportion” suitable for families.
