Port Dundas Glasgow’s Canal Quarter
• Post-industrial mixed use neighbourhood
• Live, work, play, create • Up there and out there! • Local hubs • Innovative niche housing • Proactive delivery
Comparators, inspirations
• Western Harbour, Malmo • Milan Canal Quarter • Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham • Hafencity, Hamburg • Castlefield, Manchester
canals
Castlefield, Manchester
Progressively mixed use • Continue transformation • Business, leisure, cultural, compatible with
residential • Viability critical consideration • Gradients, contamination, site clearance, capacity
(retaining walls, etc) • General scale 3-5 storeys • Car parking to accommodate different users. • High quality network of open and green spaces.

Housing
• approach providing market differentiation from Glasgow Harbour, city centre, Sighthill
• building and concentrating values in the area • differentiate housing types, emphasis on smaller
households rather than family? • combination of procurement models
traditional: enabling development in initial phases innovative: self-build, co-op etc. for niche markets

Scale + character + nodes
• mix of 3-5 storeys , rather than 8-10 • mid density • public realm nodes and features. • Important not to overdevelop and block out
views.
• running, walking, jogging – fountains, benches along canal, stretch points, exercise stations
• business, leisure, retail - a gym, shop for paddle sport activities, temporary restaurant • art installations – relationship with TWB, outdoor galleries • programming the corridor – events, publicity, attracting people

drainage and water systems
...with suds
Background legislation - outfalls into combined sewers now unacceptable localised surface water flooding NGIWM Study 2013 – water attentuation required at Port Dundas
Implications 6-10% of developable area topography, development types drive SUDS design integration with layout implications for Forth and Clyde canal
Surface water drainage
Phasing
the canal as a catalyst

Workshop review
• Identify elements you support, prioritise • Identify any concerns, reservations, risks
• Identify key further steps • Who needs to be involved in delivery • Any other issues?
Next steps
• Review feedback • Indicative costing & delivery model(s) • Complete Charrette report
• Approach to Supplementary Guidance content • Partners meet • Landowner/developer forum • Comparator visits
