The Shawlands Arcade plan will go before councillors next week
Controversial plans to demolish Shawlands Arcade and build 600 homes are set to take a step forward as council planners have recommended the principle of development is approved.
Further, more comprehensive details will need to be provided by the developers in future applications, and approved by the council, before work can begin. There have been 69 objections to the planning permission in principle application, including from Shawlands & Strathbungo Community Council, the Shawlands branch of tenants’ union Living Rent and Glasgow councillors Jon Molyneux and Holly Bruce, both Greens, and Bailie Norman MacLeod, SNP.
It added the scheme would “put further pressure on limited parking in surrounding streets and residential areas which are already congested.” “The redevelopment also offers the opportunity to provide new homes in this increasingly popular area,” it stated, adding “a lower degree of refurbishment of the existing retail offer could not deliver this level of regeneration and like many town centre shopping arcades of its era, its relative decline would likely continue.”
