Construction News Image
ISG has been selected to create a new office accommodation facility in Glasgow.

The contractor has been awarded a £5 million deal by Castleforge Partners to transform the B-listed 112 Ingram Street property in the Merchant City Central Conservation Area.

The seven-storey structure will be redeveloped to create open plan office areas on the upper six floors, including a full overhaul of the existing windows and the introduction of new finishes in keeping with the building's listed status. In addition, two large retail units across the basement, ground and first floor levels will be created, while basement shower/changing rooms and storage will be included.

Further plans involve a office reception area on the ground floor and installing two new lifts. The existing stairwells will be retained and refurbished, whilst the building's mechanical and electrical services will be upgraded. The red sandstone building's exterior will be conserved and restored with roof lead, slate and rooflights being renewed.

Andy McLinden, regional managing director of ISG's Scotland and Northern England construction business, said: "Securing new opportunities is the lifeblood of every business and we are delighted to add Castleforge Partners to our growing portfolio of prestigious clients. The Ingram Street property is well known to residents of Glasgow and we look forward to successfully delivering this project which will not only restore and enhance the building, but also add to the commercial vitality of the city."
