Planning application lodged for what could be Cork's tallest building

City living is set to reach new heights in Cork’s docklands despite a legal challenge to a vital docklands road upgrade.

The JCD Group has confirmed that it has lodged a planning application directly with An Bórd Pleanála for a soaring €90m 201-apartment build-to-rent scheme with a landmark 25-storey tower close to the gateway to the sprawling south docks.
