Sanctuary Homes has submitted an application seeking to amend its plans for the old Victoria Infirmary site in Glasgow.Glasgow City Council had previously granted planning permission to create 413 new flats, plus offices and retail units, on the site.Now Sanctuary has bid to make minor alterations which will “deliver better homes” and improve the site’s amenity space.Peter Martin, Sanctuary’s Group director – development, told our sister publication Scottish Housing News that the planned number of units or planned number of car parking spaces will not be reduced under the new plans.An earlier application for minor changes was approved in September.Once completed, the Collective Architecture-designed project will offer around 300 homes for private sale. The remaining homes will be available for affordable housing subject to Glasgow City Council grant approval.
