What’s proposed
Permission for development to amend a permitted scheme on a site of c. 0.3859 hectares on lands known as the Sorting Office, located at Ropemaker Place and Cardiff Lane, Dublin 2, D02 HD23. The site is located within the North Lotts and Grand Canal Dock Strategic Development Zone. The proposed development consists of modifications to the eastern, predominantly commercial block contained within a wider mixed-use development permitted under Reg. Ref. DSDZ2457/16 (the 'Parent Permission') and subsequently amended under Reg. Refs. DSDZ2041/17, DSZD3639/17, DSDZ3183/19, DSDZ3229/19 and DSDZ3545/19. The development comprises of: the change of use of 2 No. permitted ground floor, stand-alone retail/non-retail units (total combined GFA: 271 sqm) to proposed use as a collaborative studio and display area (including associated amendments to permitted signage, access and fenestration on the eastern facade); and the use of 1 No. permitted ground-floor, retail/non-retail cafe unit (GFA c. 281 sqm) as a retail/non-retail cafe; both to be ancillary to the adjoining commercial office development and for the exclusive use by the building tenant
