Construction Value: £80M
Location: Glasgow (City Centre)
Completion Date: October 2021
About 177 Bothwell Street
177 Bothwell Street spans 315,000 square feet across 14 storeys and accommodates 3,500 staff. It was named Glasgow's best office development regarding headline rent in 2018, 2020, and 2021. It also received the BCO 'Commercial Workplace' award in May 2023 and has top-notch sustainability credentials, including an EPC 'A' rating with a score of 2 (the most energy-efficient in Glasgow) and a BREEAM 'Excellent' certification.

The rooftop offers unique amenities like a 177-meter running track within an 8,000-square-foot terrace. The project is committed to ESG, contributing £1 million to the Glasgow Community Anchor Fund in partnership with Virgin Charities. Furthermore, it provides extensive wellness facilities, including a gym, cycling amenities, and modern features like a drone landing pad, delivery lockers, a loading bay, and a data centre.

177 also boasts many firsts in Scotland. It's the first building in Scotland to achieve a 'Platinum' certification from WiredScore and seek SmartScore certification. It also introduced the first 'Generator as a Service' in Scotland and secured debt funding from Lloyds as Scotland's first City Centre Green Loan. Additionally, 50% of the space was pre-let to Virgin Money, and it achieved full occupancy even before its completion, making it the largest-ever office investment transaction in Scotland.

Education

University Of West Scotland - Hamilton Campus
Construction value: £25M
Location: High Blantyre, South Lanarkshire
Completion date: August 2018
HFD delivered a fully integrated Cat B fit-out and constructed the original family of three buildings at the Hamilton Campus, which was completed in 2010 and subsequently occupied by the University of the West of Scotland (UWS).
The 235,000 sq. ft design linked the three buildings by creating a large atrium known as “the street”. This acted as an entrance to the campus, creating communal meeting and break-out space and hosting a coffee shop.
The building has been fitted to provide modern open-plan learning spaces supporting technology and smart devices. The campus also hosts a 236-seat auditorium and conference facilities for up to 128 people.
The campus is the first speculative carbon-neutral office development in the UK. HFD prioritises sustainability, and this campus is powered by 100% renewable power from the nearby wind farm and photovoltaic panels on the roof. This makes it one of the UK’s greenest educational facilities.
