Hot on the heels of major announcements around the future development of Cork City’s South Docks, work has begun in real-time on the Prism project, a glitzy €20m commercial development, touted as a “gateway” between the city centre and a new docklands district.

More than 18 months since the planning application was lodged with Cork City Council by Clontarf Street Developments Ltd, contractors CField Construction finally moved on site this week for preparatory works ahead of starting construction of the 15-storey tower.
