Linda Malone, Chairperson of New Gorbals Housing Association, said: "We are extremely pleased that our construction contracts continue to be won by locally based and Scottish owned companies. CCG have worked successfully with us on several building projects and we are looking forward to their construction expertise delivering another development of outstanding quality."

CCG Chairman and CEO, Alastair Wylie, said: "New Gorbals Housing Association has been a client of CCG's for many years and we were delighted to find out that we had been successful in our bid to deliver their new home together with a stunning new flatted development, one that will surely add to the bustling character of the New Gorbals.

"Both the offices and flats are being constructed using traditional methods with steel frame used as the primary structural material which is a rarity for CCG these days.
