Gregor King, Canmoor’s Scotland director at Westway, said, “We have established a strong track record at Westway, having successfully completed more than 400,000 sq ft of top quality speculative development at the estate over the past few years, all of which has been let before practical completion. Our continued commitment to speculative development reflects our confidence in Westway and the wider Glasgow market.
“Westway Court will provide much-needed best in class space and offer certainty to occupiers requiring relocation or expansion opportunities. It will be a pleasure to be working with Muir Group once again on the delivery of this latest phase.”
