What’s proposed
PROTECTED STRUCTURE: Planning permission for development at the western mezzanine level of the CHQ Building, George's Dock, Dublin 1, D01 R9YO. The CHQ Building is a registered protected structure (RPS No. 2094). The development will consist of the change of use of the northern part of the western mezzanine from 'events/exhibition/research space' to office use. The works will incorporate the enclosure of the northern part of the western mezzanine and its connection to the eastern mezzanine by the implementation of a 2.1 metre partition glazing along the eastern edge and full height partition to the northern edge and southern edge of the mezzanine. A total of 3 no. plant and ventilation pods will be installed along with a standalone plant room. Existing smoke vent openings at roof level will be amended for the purposes of ventilation. Alterations will be made at ground floor level of units 13 and 21 to implement fire escape stairs. New accommodation access stairs and entrance to the mall will be also implemented at ground floor level at unit 31, with existing fire escape stairs at unit 32 widened. Bicycle parking will be provided at the eastern elevation. The area subject to the change of use totals c. 884 sqm
