Official description
Verbatim source text
Waterside Block 9 Developments Limited intends to apply for planning permission for development on this site of c. 0.22 hectares located within City Block No. 9 (of the North Lotts & Grand Canal Dock Strategic Development Zone Planning Scheme, 2014), North Wall Quay and Mayor Street Upper, Dublin 1. The proposed development comprises the replacement of a previously-permitted commercial office building (Block No. 1, permitted under Reg. Ref. DSDZ5296/22 (“Scheme 9”)) with an aparthotel development and associated ancillary uses. (For the purposes of identification, we reference this proposal as “Scheme 18”.) The development will consist of: 1. The construction of an eight-storey aparthotel building (comprising 288 No. bedrooms) over basement (annotated as Lower Ground and Lower Ground Mezzanine levels), with a total gross floor area of 12,684 sq m. Due to the inclusion of lower ground levels, the building will present as ten storeys on the eastern elevation and eight storeys on the surrounding streets, in accordance with the North Lotts & Grand Canal Dock Planning Scheme 2014 (as amended). 2. Provision of a publicly accessible café/lounge at ground floor level, including flexible “black box” space to accommodate evening and night-time uses, an ancillary gym at lower ground level, an electricity substation, and associated back-of-house facilities including kitchen, servicing, deliveries and waste management areas. 3. Provision of 23 No. bicycle parking spaces, comprising 12 No. long-stay spaces internally and 11 No. short-stay visitor spaces externally (including 1 No. cargo bicycle space). 4. Provision of an external landscaped area at lower ground level to the east of the building. 5. Minor adjustment to external ground levels (from 4.0m OD to 4.1m OD) to align with the adjoining permitted Block No. 2 development (Reg. Ref. WEBDSDZ1931/25). 6. Provision of associated signage, plant at roof level, and all ancillary site development works above and below ground. The proposed aparthotel development will replace the previously-permitted Block No. 1 office building (11,916 sq m). The remainder of City Block No. 9 (including permitted Blocks No. 2 and No. 3) is not affected by this application. The site is bounded by Mayor Street Upper to the north, Castleforbes Road to the west, permitted Block No. 2 to the south, and adjoining lands within City Block No. 9 to the east.
