Planning sought for tallest building in the country

Plans for what could be the tallest building in Ireland, near Cork’s Mahon Point, have been submitted to An Bord Pleanála.

The development, designed by O’Mahony Pike Architects, will consist of 413 apartments, three retail units and a crèche contained in six blocks ranging in height from six to 25 storeys. The 25-storey tower, set to become the tallest building in the country, will be entirely residential.
