Around 600 homes in four high rises in the area have been earmarked for demolition.
CAMPAIGNERS are making a last-ditch plea for objectors to come forward in the hope of forcing a controversial tower block demolition proposal to a hearing.
"These buildings and the site on which they sit are remarkable; to lose them would be absolute folly." In his letter of objection, Professor Dunlop said:"The application to demolish has been made without proper consultation and the consent of the residents of the estate. No alternatives to demolition have been presented by Wheatley Homes. No substantive proposal for their replacement exists."His letter added that he believes the flats can be retrofitted and that demolition rubbishes the Scottish government's carbon reduction commitments and achieving Net Zero by 2030.
