Powerscourt Town House owners buy bank premises for €22m

The Irish Times

The owners of the Powerscourt Town House shopping centre in Dublin have paid in the region of €22 million for the Bank of Ireland branch which extends from Suffolk Street to College Green in the city centre. The building, one of the largest of its kind in the city, will be leased to a single retail operator when it is refurbished early next year. The likelihood is that it will operate mainly as an Irish interest store aimed primarily at the tourist market. It is directly opposite the Dublin Tourism office in St Andrew's church.
