This video shows an animation of developer Sean Dunnes proposed development for Ballsbridge, he has received part approval, however the office block and tower parts were refused permission. He plans to appeal the decision saying the tower is a fundamental aspect of the plan and how can it be called “mixed use” as required under the councils plans for the area if they don’t allow the office block?
I'm in two minds about this, Ballsbridge is a fantastic example of Georgian Dublin, of which we are very proud, (a small example of this is shown in the video) but the site in question is already awful and done right this tower thing might work.
