- Union Property and Clark Contracts are converting a former office building into Glasgow Citi View, a 140-room purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) development set to open for the 2026/27 academic year, addressing rising demand for city centre student housing.
- The refurbishment includes self-contained en-suite bedrooms with kitchenettes, extensive amenity spaces such as a gym, study rooms, and a flexible communal area, alongside essential external works like roof replacement and stonework repairs to preserve the listed building.
- The project involves a multi-disciplinary design team and supports Glasgow’s urban regeneration, enhancing proximity to the University of Strathclyde and Glasgow Caledonian University while expanding Clark Contracts’ student accommodation portfolio in central Scotland.
