Planning permission for development at the former Irish Distillers Building, Smithfield, Dublin 7 (the site is bounded by Phoenix Street to the South; Smithfield Square to the West; new Church Street to the north and Bow Street to the East).

Pl29n. 246933), as amended by DCC planning ref. 3974/19 (abp ref. 303060-19) to include the following external alterations and extension of the permitted building: (a) re-alignment of the Western elevation at 6th floor level by increasing the setback from the main Western facade to 302m (resulting in a reduction of 27sq. M. (gfa) in office floorspace at 6th floor level) together with associated revised area to the permitted roof terrace at the north-western corner of the building at 6th floor level; and (b) amendment of the area of permitted photo voltaic (pv) panels and removal of the permitted roof-top plant and replacement thereof with a new 7th floor roof extension (measuring approximately 1,183sq.m. in floor area (GFA) comprising of additional office floorspace) together with the provision of roof terraces at the north-western and south-western corners of the building also at 7th floor level; and (c) provision of an open rooftop plant area with associated plant screening that measure approximately 2.16m in height (above rooftop level) along with green roofed areas on top of the proposed 7th floor extensions; (d) it is also proposed to increase the permitted number of bicycle parking spaces from a total of 212 no. spaces to 216 no. spaces through the provision of an additional 4 no. bicycle parking spaces at ground floor level. In the interest of clarity, it should be noted that no changes are proposed to the permitted scheme at the fifth-floor level and below. The proposed amendments and extension will result in an increase in the overall permitted floor space of the development from 22,059sq.m. (GFA), excluding basement levels to 23,215sq.m. (GFA), excluding basement levels – an overall increase of 1,156sq.m. (GFA) of office floorspace.
