Glasgow city centre 'architectural masterpiece' up for sale
The A-listed Egyptian Halls building, designed by renowned architect Alexander 'Greek' Thomson, has been empty and derelict for decades but the council is looking at using a Compulsory Purchase Order to take it over. As part of the process, the council is looking for a developer to come forward with a proposal to bring it back into meaningful use. READ NEXT: Out of school care centre warned it doesn't meet legal standards Applications are invited with a deadline of October 17. The brochure by Ryden, under instruction from the council, describes the six-storey Union Street building as 'a unique architectural and historic asset' with the council prioritising its 'repair, repurposing, and future active reuse'. In February this year, the council agreed to look at CPO powers to take it over after decades of inaction from the current owner. Its intricate and distinctive stonework is currently hidden behind scaffolding. The building was built between 1870 and 1872, a 'hallmark' of Thomson's distinctive Greek Revival style. The brochure states: 'It remains internationally recognised as a masterpiece of Victorian architecture.' Last month, it was decided an incentive of £150,000 will be on offer to the developer chosen to revamp the historic landmark. READ NEXT:Work on West End street to start next month and last two years The building is currently owned by two companies — Union Street Developments and Union Street Properties — both run by Dundee businessman Derek Souter and his partners. They will also be invited to submit proposals to the council and are able to sell the property voluntarily at any point until the CPO is secured. Councillor Ruairi Kelly, Convener for Built Heritage, Housing and Development at Glasgow City Council, said: 'This is a key milestone in our efforts to return the Egyptian Halls to full life and restore their rightful place as an architectural treasure of national significance. 'Securing a commercial operator to take on the repair and reuse of the Halls is a core part of the CPO process which began earlier this year. In gauging the market interest we'll know what the opportunities for the future of this architectural gem can be. 'Right now, the transformation of our city centre is gathering real pace. Giving the city's built heritage new purposes and new futures is part of that and I've no doubt the Egyptian Halls can be a centrepiece in the Glasgow of the 21st century.'

Plans revealed for new car park near Glasgow Airport
Agent company Ryden has lodged an application for planning permission on behalf of AH3 for a 180-space facility on brownfield land in Abbotsinch Road. If approved, the layout would consist of rows of bays arranged to the east and west of a 'central spine' road with each parking aisle having a dead end. A small portable unit with amenities for customers and an office for staff would be located to the western edge, immediately to the south of the access. Explaining how the car park would operate, a planning statement said: 'The facility primarily serves pre-booked customers but walk-in customers without prior bookings can be manually granted access through on-site creation of a 'walk-in booking'. 'Automated electric barriers will be incorporated to the internal access road, meaning vehicles will only be permitted entry to the car park with a prior booking. 'On arrival, ANPR [automatic number plate recognition] validates the booking and a welcome message is displayed on external display screens. 'As a secondary access control measure, customers will be able to scan a barcode at the barrier console. 'This will prevent delays occurring in the event of technical issues with the ANPR camera equipment and gives customers flexibility in the event that their vehicle registration details may have changed since their booking was made.

'Upon returning to the site, customers scan their unique QR code at the automated key return locker. The locker dispenses the car key and provides the vehicle's bay location. 'Customers must exit the site within a defined period to ensure vehicles cannot re-enter without a new booking.' The perimeter would be equipped with CCTV surveillance, lighting and security fencing to 'further ensure safety and visibility' within the car park. The statement added: 'The operation will provide two parking services: 'park and stroll' and 'meet and greet'. 'The former allows customers to park on site and walk 7-8 minutes to the airport terminal. 'The 'meet and greet' option allows customers to check in, drop off their car which is then driven by a member of staff to an off-site location at West Avenue, Linwood and a circa 5-10 minute drive away. 'Vehicles are returned to the main site for customer pick-up on the day of their return.' The statement claimed the plans would create 'direct and indirect jobs' and support the future growth of the airport. A decision on the application, which is expected to be made by council officers, will be confirmed at a later date.
