Development description

Development at a site of c. 0.38 ha at fitzwilliam street lower ( and bound to the rear (east) by james' street east). The development relates to proposed modifications to part of the wider redevelopment of the site at no's 13-30, fitzwilliam street lower, dublin 2 comprising most of a city block bounded by fitzwilliam street lower, mount street upper, james's street east and baggot street lower permitted under an bord pleanála reference pl 29s. 244492 ( dublin city council reference 3052/14) currently under construction . The proposed works (with a total net additional internal floor space of 263 sq m ) relate to the permitted block b ( incorporating blocks 5,5a,6 & 6a ) and comprise a reconfiguration and extension of the permitted lower ground level ( by c. 168 sq m ) to provide for additional ancillary space, and to achieve a direct connection between the main circulation core and ancillary areas. These changes remove the need for the dedicated stair to the post room, which is now omitted. In addition a dedicated goods lift is proposed between level
1 and
2 in the basement car park. It is proposed to relocate the main stairs from its permitted position at the eastern side of the block b central core to the northern side of the block b central core at ground level, level
1, and levels 01-04. This stair will be omitted at level 05, with this level connected by a reconfigured stairs and lift area in the permitted block 5 (northern wing of block b ). The latter stairs will be extended down one floor to serve level 04, and 2 no. New wc's will be provided in this area at level
A modest repositioning westwards ( by c. 6 meters ) towards fitzwilliam street of the reception hall is proposed from this area. Associated repositioning of main entrance, void over reception, and layout of office space at level 01 ( arising from repositioned void ) are proposed . The development will also include minor associated amendments and all other site development works above and below ground
