The 141 units are being constructed over three sites in close geographic proximity at

• Gilmour Street- 90 units
• Grosvenor Road- 43 units
• East Crawford Street- 8 units

This project will be completed by March 2012, which represents a saving on timescale of approximately 12 months in the estimated programme due to the early availability of the Sinclair Street/Carwood Street site following a fire incident. The sites for development in East Greenock have the added complexity of phasing to complete the cycle of new build/occupation/demolition/re-use land for further new build.

The east end of Greenock is well provided with community facilities and amenities. Therefore these were not required by way of planning the new developments into the existing streetscape. An offsite contribution was required as part of the planning consent received on 6th May 2009 to upgrade the play facilities at a neighbouring play area.
