The proposal, which involved replacing the shopping centre with a residential development and new city centre streets, faces a 'rethink' despite plans for a new neighbourhood going ahead.
The proposal, which involved replacing the shopping centre with a residential development and new city centre streets, hit headlines last year, promising to better reflect changing shopping habits and encourage more Glaswegians to live in the city centre .
“In conversations with brands, and through engagement with the public, we know that there is both consumer and commercial appetite for this to be delivered and delivered quickly. With this in mind, we will shortly be bringing forward the first phase of a renewed vision for the transformation of Buchanan Galleries.
Mr Davis added: “We recognise the need for investment at the top end of Buchanan Street and the advantage of retaining and investing in the existing building means we can deliver more quickly for Glasgow’s community, whilst being less disruptive and less carbon intensive than our previous proposal.
