One of Scotland\u2019s first major build-to-rent developments on the banks of the Clyde has got the planning green light.<\/p>\n

The high-rise 500-flat Glasgow Waterfront project at Central Quay is being led by PLATFORM_, a developer and operator of private rented housing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The \u00a3100m scheme will offer a mix of flats for rent, spread across four blocks ranging from six to 20-storeys in height. Rents will be priced to be affordable to more than 50 per cent of workers locally.<\/p>\n

PLATFORM_ expects construction to begin in the third quarter of 2019, with practical completion expected in 2021.<\/p>\n

\n

Designed by Glasgow-based architects Keppie, the development forms part of a wider masterplan at the Clydeside Central Quay area, which includes 300,000 sq ft of office space and a 150-room hotel as well as new housing.<\/p>\n

The build-to-rent sector is expanding rapidly, with nearly 140,000 build-to-rent homes either completed, under construction, or in planning.<\/p>\n

Matt Willcock, development director at PLATFORM_, said:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cThe next phase of the project will begin early this year, starting with appointing contractors with a view to having spades in the ground by the third quarter of 2019.<\/p>\n

\n

Stuart Patrick, chief executive of Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, said:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cA development of this scale is a real boost for the Broomielaw, bringing 500 new homes to an area perfectly situated between the city centre and West End.<\/p>\n

“Not only will it create hundreds of jobs during each phase, but we\u2019re extremely supportive of plans for 300,000 sq ft of commercial space and a 150-room hotel \u2013 adding to the city\u2019s hospitality offering.”<\/p>\n
