City docklands may get 19-storey ‘gateway from east’
Planning permission is about to be sought for an €80 million project consisting of 400 apartments, a water dock, plaza, cafes, boardwalk, crèche and IT business centre at the eastern edge of Cork city, on the north quays.
Its most significant feature is a single 19-storey tower as part of the three-block plan. It would be one of the country's tallest building at 66 metres, climbing higher than Cork's County Hall by two metres.
