The scheme at Pitt Street, designed by Haus Architects in Glasgow, will be Moda’s first in Scotland.

Mod has completed the purchase of the site and will retain ownership of the block after the scheme’s completion, while renting out properties, organising weekly events and managing facilities.

Oscar Brooks, head of acquisitions for Moda, said: “The old Strathclyde Police headquarters is a fantastic site right in the heart of Glasgow, and matches our vision of delivering high-quality housing for rent in city centre locations across the United Kingdom.

“As an investor, developer, owner and operator we are here for the long-term and aim to knit ourselves into the city’s fabric. We are excited to be working with Glasgow City Council in delivering high quality homes, which help meet a pressing need for decent rental accommodation.”
