Sighthill Regeneration

Sighthill, Glasgow, Scotland

As the largest of Glasgow's eight Transformational Regeneration Areas, regeneration of Sighthill is a powerful opportunity not only to change the perception of Sighthill to make it a welcoming and vital part of the city but to help unlock the redevelopment potential of other areas to the north.

In common with the other TRA locations, poor quality high-rise flats have been demolished to make way for a new community which will comprise of new homes, a mix of uses such as retail, and community facilities set within a new sustainable landscaped environment.
