RDS under fire for office block plans
However, it has been made quietly public that the RDS has plans for developing an office complex, comprising five buildings ranging from four to six storeys (the height of the Four Seasons Hotel) along both sides of Simmonscourt Road.
This despite the fact that, according to the Dublin City Development Plan, office development is not permitted on the site. Remarkably, Dublin City Council has consented to the public road forming part of the application so that an office plaza will occupy a large part of Simmonscourt Road.
