What’s proposed

Planning permission for minor amendments to a permitted development under Reg. Ref. 4627/18 for development at a site within the overall Royal Hibernian Way complex of 0.24 hectares, Dawson Street, Dublin 2. The permitted development relates to the refurbishment and extension of Block C (fronting on to Duke Lane) at Royal Hibernian Way (and also includes the provision of a two storey ESB sub-station and ancillary changes to basement level within the complex). The proposed amendments to the permitted development comprise of: Minor relocation of the permitted substation, located in the northern service yard at Royal Hibernian Way, omission of previously permitted platform lift to the northern service yard, and minor reconfiguration of the layout of the northern service yard to facilitate the substation, including cladding works to part of the internal walls to the northern service yard for fire safety reasons arising from the substation; Introduction of a second internal staircase to the permitted development, for fire safety reasons, associated minor internal reconfiguration of the permitted development, and AOV at roof level to proposed staircase; Minor amendments to the permitted façade Duke Lane, to include a fire exit door to the façade to allow escape from the second staircase and amendment to the permitted main entrance door from Duke Lane; Relocation of permitted 18 no. bicycle parking spaces to an alternative location at basement level, proximate to 12 Duke Lane, resulting in the loss of 2 no. existing car parking spaces. The permitted development resulted in an increase in gross office floorspace at Block C of c.866 sqm, bringing the building total to c. 1,656 sqm gross floor area for Block C. The proposed amendments do not amend the gross floor area of the permitted development. The introduction of the second staircase and associated internal reconfiguration results in a reduction in the net internal area from 1,162sqm to 1,094sqm
