PROPOSED plans to redevelop a derelict site in Glasgow city centre have been revealed.
PMI Developments and Peveril Securities hope to create an aparthotel on the corner of Cambridge Street and Renfrew Street.
A planning application is expected to be submitted in the new year.
The site has been unoccupied for many years.

Designed by Glasgow-based architect studio, HAUS collective, the contemporary aparthotel will include all the stylish features of a boutique city hotel, including 24-hour reception, lounge, and café, combined with the convenience and increased space of a self-catering apartment designed for longer stays, complete with a kitchen and living area.
A gym and a rooftop terrace are also included in the plans.
Nigel Jones, director of PMI Developments, said: “Despite Glasgow’s buoyant hotel market, there is a lack of quality aparthotels in the city which is growing in popularity across Europe amongst both business and leisure travellers.

“This prominent site with its central location lends itself well to an aparthotel and will be a boost to the ongoing regeneration of Sauchiehall Street.”
A drop-in public consultation event will take place on Tuesday, November 15, from 1pm until 6pm at Edward House, 199 Sauchiehall Street, when the proposals will be available to view and the design team will be available to answer questions.
PMI Developments have more than 25 years of experience in transforming brownfield sites throughout the UK into sustainable developments.
If approved, their Cambridge Street plans will ensure investment of more than £35million into Glasgow city centre.
