Developers demolished most of listed house

The Irish Times

The development company behind a new apartment and office complex on the site of the former St Anne's Hospital on Northbrook Road, Dublin, has acknowledged it substantially demolished a listed house on an adjacent terrace. The company, Park Developments, through its project architect, said yesterday it was in discussions with Dublin Corporation on plans to demolish further houses on the listed terrace which it says are unstable. It is intended to retain the façades. Dublin Corporation was unable to confirm the discussions, however, and in a statement yesterday said it had launched an investigation into the demolition of the house, number seven, Northbrook Road.
