CITY planners have given permission for residential development at the site of a former 1920s cinema in Dennistoun.
Officials have agreed that McKernan Homes Ltd can build 24 two-bedroom apartments on vacant land at Meadowpark Street/Marne Street, near Alexandra Parade.
The Parade Cinema opened there in 1921.

A document submitted with the application states: “The proposed development would contribute towards the creation of a vibrant and accessible residential neighbourhood.
“The proposal would see the development of a vacant plot which is in poor condition.”
