Flats and shops plan to revamp town centre

Airdrie town centre is set for a transformation with plans to replace an existing car wash with 20 flats above ground-floor shops.

The Alexander Street build, which has been designed by the Mclellan Partnership, adopts an L-plan split between a terrace and a three-storey wing, all of which would be finished in blond masonry and render with brick detailing.

Properties will also have their own balconies.
