Construction Commences On 146 North Dublin Homes
Bennett Construction has commenced works on an ambitious 146-home development in Coolock, Dublin 5.
The homes make up a joint project from the Land Development Agency (LDA) and Dublin City Council (DCC).
The An tSrúill development, located on Cromcastle Road at the junction of Oscar Traynor Road and Kilmore Road, will include 133 cost rental and 13 social homes, as well as new community, cultural and open spaces across its 1.7-acre site.
The development will include apartments, public open spaces and communal amenities with new landscaping, a public plaza and green spaces to enhance biodiversity.
It will also have easy access to a range of local amenities and services including public transport, shopping and schools.
John Coleman, Chief Executive of the Land Development Agency, said: "We are delighted to get construction started on this 146-home development. An tSrúill is being delivered to the highest standards in an excellent and well-served location with easy access to all local amenities and services.
"It will provide much-needed cost rental and social housing and it will add significantly to the existing local community, delivering new pedestrian routes and public spaces."
Richard Shakespeare, Chief Executive of Dublin City Council, added: "It is fantastic to have broken ground at An tSrúill and we are looking forward to the delivery of what will be 146 high-quality and A-rated homes.
"This development will add to the housing supply in Dublin 5 and complement another development that DCC is working on at an adjacent site.
"DCC is committed to maximising the housing potential of land in our ownership and we are continuing to partner effectively with the LDA, whose expertise and experience is helping us to bring projects through the design and planning phases to construction and completion."
An tSrúill is one of a growing number of developments being delivered by the LDA in partnership with DCC.
Construction will start imminently on 543 homes at Donore Project at St Teresa's Gardens in Dublin's south inner city and planning permission has been secured for the first phase of over 1,000 homes in Cherry Orchard Point in west Dublin.
The LDA and DCC are also developing plans for a new housing development at Bluebell Waterways in Dublin 12 with the potential to deliver 389 homes.
