The Association is in the process of public consultation on its updated redevelopment proposals for the site of the Caledonia Road Multi Storey Flats (305 and 341 Caledonia Road).
This consultation is an update to our 2023 consultation, with revised designs now being proposed.
Two Architects have been engaged in the design process, each developing designs for separate parts of the site. The proposals for each part of the site can be seen in the following documents:
New Gorbals Housing Association is developing proposals for the re development of the site of the multi storey blocks at 341 and 305 Caledonia Road, which will be demolished during 2025. The Association’s objective is to develop social rented homes to replace the lost houses.
The proposals are aimed at providing housing to meet a range of housing need, particularly larger families and people with mobility issues (including wheelchair users).
The mix of seven storey, four storey and two storey elements reflects the existing buildings in the area, including the Silverfir Court Tracoba blocks, the Maisonette blocks and the new build developments on Old Rutherglen Road and Oregon Street. Developing blocks taller than four storeys allows us to incorporate lifts to upper floor flats. The two storey elements add to the number of back and front door houses in the area.
All of the new homes will be energy efficient with the objective of reducing heating costs for tenants. Heating is likely to be by heat pumps and solar panels will be incorporated where possible.
The development follows the successful Crown Street model with maisonettes on the ground and first floors with flats above, sharing a private back court area. The proposals also include a number of 2 storey terraced houses.
