Housing
The architect’s impression shows how the four-storey social-rented tenemental houses in Alice Terrace (which face west over the Boulevard) were first envisaged, with, in the background, the first private houses in Ritz Place. One of the aims of the development is that the social-rented housing on the site will be indistinguishable from the privately-owned.
Architect's impression of housing in Alice Terrace
The total number of new houses on the site is currently expected to be 1,275, of which 1,062 will be sold by Gladedale (formerly Bett Homes) and other house builders and 213 will be rented out by housing associations. In addition, 96 flats in three- and four-storey blocks at Braehead Street/Caledonia Road have recently been refurbished by the Glasgow Housing Association, and a planning application has been submitted for the conversion of a further block of one-apartment dwellings into 8 townhouses and 6 flats.
