Description:
Glasgow City Council is taking on a new lease for the arches in Shipbank Lane at Bridgegate - commonly known as Paddy's Market. The existing market has closed.
The Council negotiated with Network Rail with a view to taking on the new lease at Shipbank Lane to allow the role and function of the market to be reviewed. Ideas are being explored for a vibrant new market for the 21st Century. Work on preparing for this will commence when the Council takes on the new lease.
The development of this site is seen as key to the continuing regeneration of the Merchant City, where long-term investment has delivered a significant improvement in the public environment, increased property investment and steady growth in the local investment base.
Current status:
The site is being made safe and secure and a local development straetgy will be developed.
