Changes on South Mall

MORE musical chairs in train along Cork city’s South Mall, where ground floor showroom/offices come up to let at a competitive €18 per square foot — just a shade under the €15 psf quoted for larger overhead first and second floor space.

Marketing the 1,500 sq ft of ground floor showroom/office at 80A South Mall, also known as Hibernian House, are Declan Hickey and John Downing of Downing Commercial.

The suite (vacated by a property sales and letting firm) is bright and adaptable — and could catch the eye of some type of retail type of user, subject to planning, given the evolving nature of occupiers on the Mall, which now includes shops, bars/cafe restaurants and florists Best of Buds, plus a new bridal boutique which took 700 sq ft of first floor space at 47 South Mall, over an estate agency.
