Developers to give briefing on Cork event centre

The developers of Cork’s event centre are expected to brief city councillors before the end of the month on the status of the project which has been dogged by delays.

And a decision is expected today on BAM Property Ltd’s proposed amendments to the northern part of the former Beamish and Crawford brewery site, where it sought permission last September to make changes.

Among the proposals are the reduction in retail space in the ground floor to help accommodate extra student apartments proposed under the overall €150m Brewery Quarter regeneration of the former Beamish and Crawford site on South Main St.
