Landmark skyscraper gets go-ahead - Irish Architectural News

The Irish Times

Planning permission has been granted by An Bord Pleanála for a landmark 96-metre "skyscraper" at Sir John Rogerson's Quay, in Dublin. If built, it would be the tallest building in Ireland. The tapering glazed structure, significantly higher than Liberty Hall's 59 metres, would rise up from the former Hammond Lane metalworks at the confluence of the Liffey, the Dodder and the Grand Canal. Designed by OMS Architects for Dunloe Ewart plc, the tower would form the centrepiece of a major development consisting of 26,446 square metres of offices, 3,158 square metres of retail space and 231 apartments.
