It said: “The site owner and applicant, Merchants House, is currently in advanced discussions with a prominent restaurant operator to occupy this unit. A restaurant operator at the unit would secure a long-term tenant that positively contributes towards the vibrancy of George Square, West George Street and the wider City Centre both during the day and evening by increasing activity and footfall in the area.”
The planning statement added: “The proposals would have a positive impact upon the wider environment by introducing an active use within the underutilised basement, creating jobs and increasing footfall and spending in the area to the benefit of the local economy.”
Merchants House, which was built in the 1790’s is used as a wedding and conference venue.
The application is being considered by Glasgow City Council.
