Riverside Dalmarnock receives parliamentary recognition following latest award win

A motion by a Scottish politician celebrates Phase three of Riverside Dalmarnock winning Age Exclusive Development of the Year at the Scottish Home Awards 2024.

Dr Sandesh Gulhane MSP lodged a motion which reads:

“That the [Scottish] Parliament congratulates Riverside Dalmarnock development upon winning Age Exclusive Development of the Year at the Scottish Home Awards 2024; notes that the award, given for phase three of the development, is the most recent recognition for Riverside Dalmarnock, which previously won the Architecture: Regeneration award at the Scottish Design Awards 2022, Affordable Housing Development of the Year and Housing Regeneration Project of the Year at the Homes for Scotland Awards 2022; understands that the development is a partnership project between Link Group and McTaggart Construction; recognises that Riverside Dalmarnock is a mixed tenure development of 562 new homes, providing a mixture of homes for affordable rent, new supply shared equity, mid-market rent and private purchase, and welcomes the regeneration of the Dalmarnock area in Glasgow, involving an array of projects to create new homes, community venues, amenities and green spaces, revitalising the area for the future.”

The motion has attracted support from the following MSPs: Colin Beattie, Miles Briggs, Pam Duncan-Glancy, Meghan Gallacher, Pam Gosal, Craig Hoy, Bill Kidd, Stuart McMillan, Edward Mountain, Ash Regan, Douglas Ross, Alexander Stewart, Paul Sweeney, and Annie Wells.

Colin Culross, Link Group Commercial Development Director and C~urb Managing Director said: “It is really pleasing to see the support and interest shown by politicians from across the political spectrum in this multi-award-winning housing development, which has played a key role in continuing the regeneration in Dalmarnock and the surrounding area.

“I would like to especially thank McTaggart Construction, Glasgow City Council, Hypostyle Architects, Laurel Homes along with the Scottish Government for continuing to support this incredibly important development, but really everyone who has played their part working collectively to deliver these award-winning ultra-modern, affordable homes, should be really proud.”
