The Glenerrol Development Company, owned by tycoon James Mortimer, has submitted plans to Glasgow City council to create a 100-bedroom hotel in a courtyard behind Royal Exchange Square. Plans lodged include shops, bars, a restaurant and a casino at the site. Architecture firm Nord have been appointed to the project and Nord partner Alan Pert has presented it to the Glasgow Urban Design panel, which advises the city council on controversial planning applications. He told them that the proposals will replace “dark and dingy” courtyards currently used for refuse collection and parking. Meanwhile Lynnet Leisure recently had its licence suspended for a month at Karbon nightclub. When it reopens it will have a 21 and over restriction.
