Well over 10,000 new homes have been built as part of the Clyde Waterfront project.
The resources here are links to those involved in building these
new homes. There are also links to organisations involved in
planning and supporting housing services.
There is a wide range of new homes in the area from
studio apartments to 4 bedroom houses. There is also a range of
tenures including buying, renting from housing associations,
renting privately and shared ownership.
