An Taisce submits planning concern on Clerys redevelopment

An Taisce is backing the concerns of former workers at Clerys by claiming the planned €150m redevelopment of the store is contrary to the Dublin City Council Development Plan.

Already, over 35 former workers at the landmark store have lodged individual objections against the plan by OCS Properties Ltd to transform the property into a six-storey retail and office scheme, including an outdoor dining area.

Documents lodged with the city council by OCS Properties show the so-called ‘Project D1’ will create 3,990 direct and indirect and other jobs.
