Green light for residential towers in Cork’s docklands

It the latest large-scale docklands project sanctioned by planners. Others have been appealed to An Bord Pleanála.

Planners have given the green light for two residential towers in Cork’s docklands - a decision which brings the value of approved private sector projects in the docklands close to €500m.

Target Ark Ltd’s plan to build two slender apartment towers - one 10-storeys tall and the other a six-storey structure - on a strategic site off Victoria Road, behind the under-construction Navigation Square office precinct, is set to add renewed impetus to the expansion and rejuvenation of the city’s docklands eastwards.
