The receivers of a major Dublin Docklands site will submit a planning application for a 395,000 sq ft office, residential and cultural development to Dublin city council today.
Savills is acting as receiver to the Boland’s Mill site at Grand Canal Dock, on behalf of Nama.
The €150m (£119m) project would be one of the largest developments to be undertaken in Ireland since the 2008 crash. The application is also the first to be submitted since Dublin Docklands was designated a strategic development zone last May. The development plans include two office buildings and one residential tower.
Mark Reynolds, director at Savills, who is acting as receiver, said: “Boland’s Mill is the most iconic and recognisable Dockland frontage sites in Dublin, therefore the design team – consisting of Savills, Burke-Kennedy Doyle Architects, John Spain Associates, ARUP, David Slattery Conservation Architects and Mitchell Associates – worked to ensure that the proposed development accords with the requirements of the SDZ Planning Scheme and that best conservation practice was adopted for the refurbishment of the protected structures on the site.”
