Scottish Buildings - Hypostyle : Information + Images

Key Projects: Crown Street, Gorbals, Glasgow, Scotland - Phase 5&6 : Housing new gorbals: image from hypostyle architects Hypostyle Architects - New Gorbals :PR Crown Street Phases 5 & 6 are the final phases of the critically acclaimed New Gorbals redevelopment in conjunction with Redrow Homes. Comprising a total of 203 town houses, flats and duplex apartments, this completion of the New Gorbals masterplan follows on from the success of Hypostyle's earlier Phase 2B development. This development has a balanced contemporary feel in form, materials and scale. At the South West junction of Caledonia Road and Cathcart Road, two arterial roads into Glasgow City Centre, the massing rises up each side of twin stone towers to a larger scale befitting a major city gateway. This gateway status is further enhanced wit the incorporation of one of the city's largest new civic artworks 'the Gatekeeper' by artist group Heisenberg.
