## Resource

Govan’s housing crisis is hitting hard—long waiting lists, displaced longtime residents, and newcomers blocked out—despite being a sought-after spot thanks to transport links, hospital access, and historic charm. Caron Quinn from Govan Housing Association is pushing for smarter solutions, like repurposing empty commercial spaces and streamlining planning rules. Meanwhile, Glasgow City Council is pouring cash into affordable housing, with Govan leading the charge for new developments—including turning old pubs into homes—and a major push to build 30,000 new homes citywide, 11,000 affordable. A new footbridge and a glowing future are on the horizon for this resilient neighborhood. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
