The 22-acre site, formerly occupied by Dalmarnock Power Station, has been vacant since 1980 until it was acquired by Link Group in 2015. Since then Link Group and Laurel Homes have developed Riverside Dalmarnock, an initiative to create a tenure neutral designed development of flats and houses for social rent, mid-market rent, new supply shared equity (NSSE) plus private sale.
Glasgow City Council has worked in partnership with Link Group to ensure that the development builds on the recent investment in Dalmarnock.
The Riverside Dalmarnock development, which is situated adjacent to the neighbouring Commonwealth Games Village, meets key strategic priorities that are outlined in the Council’s Local Housing Strategy including promoting regeneration and enabling investment in the delivery of energy efficient new build homes across all tenures. Glasgow City Council has supported Link Group through contributing funding towards the site acquisition, progressing the design of the development and associated infrastructure works.
Laurel Homes will be delivering over 200 private homes for sale at Riverside Dalmarnock, including houses and flats. Link Group will be delivering 356 properties for Mid-market Rent, New Supply Shared Equity and Social Rent.
