Four towers at the Wyndford estate, Maryhill, are facing being razed to the ground and replaced with 300 new homes.
A campaign to save residential tower blocks in the north of Glasgow from demolition has been given a boost.
Alan Dunlop of Alan Dunlop Architect Limited has said that it could be possible to add new social and affordable homes to the site without demolishing the existing ones. In his objection submitted to Glasgow City Council, he outlined that the application "has been made without proper consultation and consent of the residents of the estate" and that "no alternatives to demolition have been proposed by Wheatley Homes".
Objections added to the planning portal have so far been removed but it is anticipated that a further application will have to be submitted by Wheatley Group after the council decided that Prior Approval will be required for the work to go ahead.
