County Hall wins industry acclaim

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2001 / February 21 2001: County Hall wins industry acclaim

The new Fingal County Hall complex in Swords, Co Dublin is winning widespread acclaim as one of our finest "new generation" buildings. The complex is showcased in a cover story in the latest issue of the RIAI journal "Irish Architect." An international open competition was held to design Fingal County Hall, with an area of 11,240 sq m and a budget of Ł13.2m. The building was completed in September last. The new complex consists of a council chamber, a civic space in which the public meets and conducts business with county officials and office accommodation for the 450 employees of the council, divided into thirteen departments.
