OPW to sell Hawkins House
The Office of Public Works is to sell the Department of Health building at Hawkins House in Dublin city centre.
It has been described, ironically, as the most unhealthy public building in the country.
Recent attempts to engage in a property swap have proved unsuccessful. It was hoped that a developer would offer office accommodation at a separate location for the 500 or so staff in return for possession of Hawkins House.
However the offers received did not match market expectations and the Office of Public Works is now planning to put the building on the open market.
