What’s proposed

Permission for development, consisting of modifications to a permitted mixed use development under Ref. 2713/17, located at Santry Avenue and Swords Road, Santry, Dublin 9. Permission is sought to increase the height of Blocks A, B and C from permitted 5 storeys to proposed 7 storeys and for a change in unit type and increase in number of apartments i.e. 70 no. apartments, which will result in a change from 137 no. permitted apartments to 207 no. 1, 2 & 3 bed apartments in the aforementioned buildings, including provision of balconies and roof terraces (i.e. 240sq.m. each) to Blocks A, B & C. The ground floor of Block C will accommodate a unit (i.e. 210sq.m.) for community use in compliance with condition no. 3 attached to planning permission Ref. 2713/17. The proposed development also seeks to provide additional office floor space to both Blocks D & E, providing an increase of 2,931sq.m. of office accommodation to the overall previously permitted development. Block D will increase in height from permitted 2 & 4 storeys to proposed 3 & 5 storeys, while Block E will increase in height from permitted 4 storeys to proposed 5 storeys. Permission is also sought for an extension to the permitted basement car park, (i.e. 1,273sq.m.), to accommodate 52 no. additional car parking spaces, additional bicycle parking and a new emergency escape route to the surface. The proposed development also provides for conversion of 3 no. surface car parking spaces to 3 no. "GoCar" spaces to the north of Block B, and all associated site development works, on a site area of 1.55ha. The effect of the proposed development will be a modification to an extant permission under Ref. 2713/17
