BAM lodges plans for £100m Glasgow office development

26 Sep 14 BAM Properties and Taylor Clark Properties have unveiled plans for a £100m development in Glasgow.

A planning application has been lodged with Glasgow City Council for a 300,000 square foot office scheme in Atlantic Square, making it one of the city’s largest office developments.

The proposed development will comprise two commercial buildings, with one of 10 storeys (180,000 sq ft) and one of six storeys (80,000 sq ft). Both will have ground floor retail space. A third building will comprise retail and residential accommodation.

If approved, it will be built by BAM Construction.

BAM Properties development director Michael Smart said: "This is a strategic alliance between Taylor Clark, which owns the site, and BAM as a developer and contractor with a substantial track record in bringing attractive sustainable developments to the market.”

He added: “This project builds on our positive experience at our CONNECT110NS development in Queen Street.  We have carefully researched the supply pipeline and have identified a strong undercurrent of demand from top grade companies and organisations. Together, we will create a state-of-the art development that will meet the requirements of forward thinking business tenants and investors.”

The new development has been designed by architectsCooper Cromar and will include the retained façade of the listed warehouse buildings on the site that were built in the early 20th century.

Work on the development will start as soon as the necessary planning consents have been secured, BAM said.
