Developer in fresh offer to do Longboat Quay works

Bernard McNamara has made a fresh offer to apartment owners in Longboat Quay to do the remedial work which is currently being required under a fire safety order.

Dublin District Court has instructed that the work must be completed by the summer of next year in order to prevent the evacuation of the complex. Mr McNamara’s company Gendsong built the 296 unit complex on Dublin’s John Rogerson Quay in 2006 which was found in 2014 to have major fire safety deficiencies.

A meeting for apartment owners and residents on Tuesday heard the new offer had just been received at 9pm on Monday and that further time was required to assess it.
