| Comment | It's a dense area that could and should take on more dense housing in my opinion. I get the revulsion against high rises, but this is more medium-high rise, and in keeping with what exists in the area already. This kind of thing is the norm in equivalent cities like Hamburg or Rotterdam. Look at their waterfronts and you'll see urban density.
This is next to one of the best local transport hubs in Scotland, next to shops, supermarkets, etc. I think Partick could handle this. Loads of bars and restaurants too.
And everyone knows we need more housing. The housing market whether rental or home sale is bananas, down to limited supply (and to other extents, a lack of regulation on short term lets which is inflating prices further). If urban development# like this aren't to be allowed, we're going to end up with continuous suburban sprawl instead. |
