Situated on land bounded by Elliot, Cranston and Park Street’s this will see the previously consented Azure building moved south to abut the Clydeside Expressway and provide space for a second structure, offering 80,000sq/ft of grade A office space, to be built to its north.

In their design statement the architects observed: “To allow the site proposal to include two buildings, whilst retaining a high proportion of associated landscaping the larger of the 2 developments, Office Building ‘1’ required to be moved southward towards the Clydeside Expressway, thus retaining the buildings design ethos, to provide panoramic views South-East across the city from each floor plate.

“The site location of Building ‘2’ has been developed through an indepth study into the reduction of overshadowing to the residential block on Cranston Street.”

Both seven storey blocks will incorporate undercroft parking and share a public entrance plaza.
