Derelict Cowlairs site earmarked for around 800 new homes
Proposals for more than 800 homes have been included in a masterplan for the transformation of Cowlairs in north Glasgow into “growing, green and healthy neighbourhood”.The vacant 30-hectare site between Possilpark and Keppochhill Road used to be occupied by tenement housing, St Theresa’s Primary School, sports pitches and Cowlairs Park.Glasgow City Council has presented a masterplan for the area including around 800 mixed tenure homes; a new park and quality amenity space; active travel routes; a central boulevard; and commercial and community uses.According to the report, the homes are intended to be developed to the Passivhaus standard and thus will contribute significantly to the city council’s goal of being a carbon neutral city.Work could potentially start on the first phase of housing development in spring 2022.
