The state-of-the-art St Vincent Studios development is being delivered by GRAHAM on behalf of Artisan Real Estate and Housing Growth Partnership.
The project, aimed at facilitating Glasgow's growing student population, is set to be completed by summer 2026.
Once ready, it will offer premium living spaces with a variety of amenities, such as study areas, a gym, a cinema room, roof terraces, reception, and cycle storage for 160 bikes.
The new development is being built on a site that housed a 1970s office building, which has been vacant since 2019.
Once finished, it will be within walking distance of the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow Caledonian University, and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

William Ross, contracts director at GRAHAM Building, said: "Reaching the topping out stage at St Vincent Studios is a significant moment in delivering this landmark scheme.
"We are proud to be transforming a long-vacant site into modern accommodation that will support both Glasgow’s students and the wider regeneration of the city centre."
Artisan's development director for Scotland, David Westwater, added: "The site is in a superb city centre location and meets the urgent need for high-quality student accommodation in the city, especially for individual studio apartments.
"St Vincent Studios is a well-designed development which replaces an existing office block which had remained vacant for more than five years."
