North Gate

North Gate
2023

North Gate is the latest in a series of Page\Park designed residential buildings within the Gorbals. The brief was to develop the vacant brownfield site with a new city landmark that completes the Gorbals masterplan. It contains 31 units comprising of 1 and 2 bed flats for 100% social rent.

Designed to suit the needs of primarily older residents, the internal layouts are open plan and exceed the ‘Glasgow Standard’ of housing. Conceived as a series of towers, the building splays out to maximise the potential compact site area. This ensures all flats are either duel or triple aspect, providing quality natural light and considerable views across the city.

To promote healthy independent living, the residents have access to a communal social facility via a living-well service. This allows tenants to remain socially interconnected. Spaces include a games room, communal kitchen, lounge area, landscaped garden area and patio.
