Official record
Development description
Permission & retention - change of use of the ground floor of building on a site at pembroke row, known as 55 lad lane, dublin 2 from approved use as an enterprise centre to office use. The ground floor is part of a recently constructed building containing basement, ground floor and 5 storey overhead containing 25 apartments. Permission was granted (reg. Ref. 4070/18) to change the use from restaurant at ground floor and to extend the ground floor for use as an enterprise centre. The ground floor remains unoccupied for that use and so permission is now sought to use that area as offices. The basement area will continue to be used for services for the building (car parking, cycle parking, shower facilities), with the upper floors containing the approved residential use. Retention permission is sought to reconfigure the basement layout to reduce the car parking from 28 to 25 spaces, rearrange bicycle parking for the apartments, bicycle parking and shower and changing facilities for the office use, relocate the bin store and the lift between the basement and the ground floor and rearrange the rooflights overhead.
