Vita Group have applied to demolish the historic C-listed 1875 building and replace it with 356 student bed spaces and a courtyard. A public food hall would also be constructed on ground level under the plans.
Designs for student accommodation and a public food hall on the site of Sauchiehall's fire-ravaged 02 ABC have been submitted.
A design statement included with the planning application explains: “The ABC was previously one of the city’s busiest and most renowned live music venues, before it was devastated by the Glasgow School of Art fire in 2018. “The demolition of both ABC and Jumpin’ Jak’s does however offer the opportunity to develop a cohesive response for the site that interacts with both Sauchiehall Street and Glasgow School of Art as one unified city block.”
It continues: “It is an exciting opportunity to bring investment, footfall and animation to both Sauchiehall Street and Glasgow.
