€50m conference and events centre gets green light
The board’s decision on developer Owen O’Callaghan’s proposed 5,000-seat facility on Albert Quay came despite its own inspector’s recommendation last year to refuse permission.
The board said in deciding not to accept that recommendation, it had agreed the development as originally conceived, with a single point of access and egress from Albert Quay, had represented a potential danger to public safety from traffic hazard.
