The plans will see 11 to 17 residents per floor above the ground floor share a communal kitchen/living/dining area, while there will also be communal amenity spaces including gymnasium, a party/function/cinema room and a games lounge. The developer also pointed to its planned co-living development at Elbana Avenue in Dun Laoghaire, which was granted permission by Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council last year.

It also noted that Rathmines is a ‘Key District Centre’ within the Dublin City Development Plan, which represent “the top-tier of urban centres outside the city centre”. “The development would contribute to the achievement of development plan housing targets and to national and regional policies to provide housing at sustainable locations and to encourage densification and compact urban growth.”

In its decision, Dublin City Council’s planning department said it was satisfied that that development complied with the Sustainable Urban Housing: Design Standards for New Apartments-Guidelines.

Fancy slums.

If we tried house the homeless there it would be considered sunstandard. But it’s ok to rent them out to desperate people for exorbitant prices? Wtf

Great news!

Putting a new spin on 'slumming it' does not make it any less of a slum development Trying to push it through before SinnFein can block them

Yipee. Things are gettig done. Homes are being built

Wait until you see... 'affordable' will be well over a grand a month. Head on up to IKEA sometime & see what 25sqm looks like... and then knock 9sqm off that. Completely immoral.

helloFG why don't we house all the FG politicians in one of these.

*Glorified hostel at an inflated price*

Great news but the nimbys will be along soon

The 90's are back baby! (That is, the 1890 tenements are back!)

This land is actually IN the park, not beside, not by and not adjacent to it. It’s zoned Z15, for institutional use and not for residential development, but the rules don’t seem to matter when building high-priced, high-rise apartments in our parks. nowheretoplay SaveStAnnes Money talks and the brown envelopes have been delivered Great news
