Plans for the 13-storey venue with a rooftop bar have been approved by Glasgow City Council.
Arts complex SWG3 can build a hotel with a rooftop bar and restaurant after Glasgow City Council approved the project.
It will include a cafe/bar on the ground floor, a gym with a sauna and steam room, meeting rooms and a function suite. Andrew Mickel, a director at SWG3, told the committee the arts complex has become “the cultural heartbeat of the city and Scotland”, describing it as “an authentic homegrown crucible for music, arts and cutting edge fashion”.
She added: “Over the summer period, when SWG3 had their outdoor gigs, none of the residents in the local area could hear their TVs because of the bass. We then have people coming up and down the street late at night. No car parking is included in the plan. The applicants said they were willing to work with the community and the council to address issues.
