Glasgow City Council has approved plans for 40 flats for social rent on vacant land around a historic Calton church.Two blocks of flats, each with four floors, had been proposed by AS Homes (Scotland) and George Buchanan Architects.The one and two-bedroom properties will be near to the category A-listed St Mary’s Church on a site bounded by Abercromby Street, Forbes Street and Orr Street.Parking provision of 50% is proposed due to low car ownership in social rented properties, the high level of public transport and local amenities within a short walking distance.
