Only one Cork firm in running for city offices contract

JUST one Cork firm has been shortlisted to bid for a €1 million-plus contract to furnish the city’s new civic offices.

Of the seven Cork firms who expressed an interest in tendering for the two-pronged contract, only one is still in the running.

The huge office block is under construction next to City Hall on Anglesea Street and, once complete, will be one of the city’s most modern buildings.
