At an award ceremony held in Glasgow, Anderston Regeneration was named Housing Regeneration Project of the Year, while Weirston Road was named Large Affordable Housing Project of the Year.
Anderston Regeneration is one of CCG's biggest ever projects, consisting of 542 mixed tenure homes located just outside of Glasgow city centre.
The £50m multi-phase regeneration was constructed over a period of nearly 10 years and is an exemplar for the use of offsite methods of construction and community benefit. The final phase – Phase 4 & 5 – was officially completed in December 2018 after the installation of the Charles Rennie MacKintosh Statue that was created by sculptor Andy Scott with a little help from CCG.

Separately the Weirston Road – in the former Coreshill Farm near Eglinton Country Park – development consisted of 64 units in a mix of two, three and four bedroom cottage flats and semi-detached homes, including five amenity plots and one especially for wheelchair users. Weirston Road was procured through the Scottish Procurement Alliance NH1 Framework and is also another great example of CCG's approach to community benefit with up to 3 new jobs created as a direct result of the project.
Welcoming the awards, CCG also congratulated its partners, Collective Architecture and MAST Architects.
