Large scheme for riverside site near Heuston

Hickeys

Plans for a major residential and office scheme at Hickey's Fabrics headquarters at Parkgate Street, Dublin 8 - opposite Heuston Railway Station - will shortly be lodged with Dublin City Council. Architect Scott Tallon Walker has been engaged by Hickey's to design the scheme at the prime 0.7-hectare site beside the River Liffey at the junction of Parkgate Street and Seán Heuston Bridge. The scheme will involve 139 apartments in two nine-storey blocks, a public plaza overhanging the River Liffey, a six-storey glazed office block and a new pedestrianised street connecting Parkgate Street to the river. Hickey's expansion into the retail warehouse sector in recent years has reduced the necessity for a city centre headquarters, explained Iain Finnegan of estate agent Finnegan Menton who will be handling the sale of the scheme, if it gets approval.
