Tower Development Properties Ltd is seeking to extend planning permission for a landmark 34-storey tower hotel on Custom House Quay in Cork city, for which consent expires in May.

The request for a three-year extension was made on January 19, as the clock runs down on a five year planning grant, issued by An Bord Pleanála (now An Coimisiún Pleanála) on March 22, 2021.
