Sustainability hits new South Mall office heights

The first new office building to be constructed on Cork city’s South Mall in a generation is 35% more energy efficient than comparable buildings, constructed even up to just a decade ago.

That’s the achievement of 85 South Mall, a 45,000 sq ft Gold LEED office block snuck into a 0.35 acre city centre site behind a slender, new South Mall facade. It’s fully let on its completion, and it’s where the first of 150 KPMG staff made their short move to this week, relocating from a 1970s-built block alongside at 89/90 South Mall.
