Homeless charity Simon takes over bank, while other deals being done despite downturn

Lisney Cork report highlights a €31m office investment sale, relocations, growing 'grey space' - and the  Simon Community taking over  former KBC bank Cork city  offices

Then, and now: a 2017  'Anti-Eviction Taskforce' protest outside the former KBC Bank on Lapp's Quay. The building opposite City Hall is being let as admin offices for homeless charity Cork Simon Community.

AN OFF-MARKET office investment sale of €31.35m at Westfield Ballincollig; the homeless charity Cork Simon Community leasing the former KBC bank branch on Lapps Quay; and, the return to the city centre from the suburbs of law firm RDJ, are among the highlights of Cork city’s office market activity in recent months, according to the just-released Q3 market report from agents Lisney.
