Who on earth wants an over priced little box next to Scotland's busiest road?

Walking distance to city centre & kelvingrove park with both balcony and garden? Aye, what a hellish existence

Not going to be much sunlight in that North facing garden. Lovely bit of artistic license there. The hidden oasis concept would be a lot more convincing with an accessible rooftop garden.

Aren't they in the proces of capping the M8? Which I believe is due to be finished next year. The flats will then look out over a nice garden instead of grid locked traffic.

#4 ....... errrrr naw
Your talking nonsense

I understand any 'cap' would be limited to the area between Sauchiehall Street and Bath Street. A £250k feasibility study is underway that includes Charing Cross North and should have reported back to committee by now - it's part of the Sauchiehall & Garnethill District Regeneration Framework.

Charing Cross North aims:
To vastly improve pedestrian links between the Sauchiehall and Garnethill District and the parts of the city to the west of the M8 corridor. This corridor creates a complete separation, both physically and in terms of perception. For pedestrians in Sauchiehall Street with no particular need to go west, the existing conditions discourage even the thought of doing so. For those who do have to cross over, in any direction, and whether on foot or bicycle, this experience is not particularly welcoming, inconvenient, confusing and time-consuming. This project is intended to reconnect Sauchiehall Street with the West End, to make the western and eastern parts of the street feel like parts of the same street once again, and generally to make walking and cycling between Sauchiehall Street, Woodlands Road, Renfrew Street, St George’s Road, North Street and Newton Street as seamless and pleasant as possible.

The cap that has been discussed, and subsequent linear park, should stretch from St Georges Cross Mansions right down to St Vincent Street that faces the motorway. However this will not extend as far up as the location of this new development.

Whisper it......but there's more chance of Nicola producing a viable economic case for independence than the M8 ever been capped. Neither will happen, as they are both purely smoke and mirrors.

@#4, 7,8 The 'Cap' is ONLY the section between Bath Street and Sauchiehall Street.

As the M8 has to rise to clear the rail tunnel running under it between Bath Street and St Vincent Street this section can't be capped.

The cap between Bath Street and Sauchiehall Street will create a island park to connect Tay House to Chinaski's. Albeit crossing two busy feeder motorway roads.

The motorway in front of this development will remain as it is. Until the M8 is redirected, moved underground, neither of which I would expect will be a priority in our post pandemic near future.

I like em. Agree wit Charlies sentiment.

#9 that was only one option, the feasibility is exploring raising up the cap raised from Bath Street to St Vincent Street to allow clearance for the higher section of motorway that runs above the North Clyde Line. The cap between Bath Street and Sauchiehall Street has been dismissed as being "not ambitious enough" for the money and disruption involved, and would not have enough of a positive effect.
