The car free development is on the site of an old Arnold Clark dealership.
Plans to develop 50 “bland" and "blockey” style flats on a former car garage in Glasgow’s South Side have been given the green light by planning chiefs.
Councillor Martha Wardrop said: “I was just looking at the colouring and material and how there is concern about how this building would sit alongside others. The colour of gold doesn’t really dominate anywhere else. “It is hard to see from this visualisations what this would look like in the flesh but I do wonder if we should be thinking of something more contrasting on the juliette balconies to actually give it some detail rather than have that very bland - prison like appearance on Nithsdale Road. It needs more of a visual appeal.”
