Work is continuing on a new 'affordable' housing development in Glasgow.
CCG is delivering the 22-apartment scheme at Inglefield Street on behalf of Govanhill Housing Association.
The new homes will include two properties with full wheelchair accessibility, as well as a fully enclosed, private courtyard to provide amenity space for each close. Hedge planting and raised planters to offer privacy and green space for the new residents will also be developed.
Calum Murray, Director of CCG said: "We are delighted to be working with Govanhill Housing Association at Inglefield which represents the second live contract we have with the association following the commencement of a window replacement contract in January."
Govanhill Housing Association Vice Chairperson, Annie Macfarlane , said: "This development, which is part of our overall regeneration strategy for Govanhill, will provide much-needed social housing for people in the community. It involves significant investment in a key local site which has been vacant for the past 3 years.
"We are building high-quality and modern flats which are highly sustainable and energy efficient – providing residents with homes that have much cheaper energy bills and fewer carbon emissions."
