Proposed development

Application description published by Dublin City Council.
PERMISSION:The proposed development consists of demolition of the former Fr. Lar Redmond Community Centre (one-storey, circa 160 sq.m.) and the construction of an older persons age-in- place' development consisting of a four, five and six-storey community facility / apartment building in its place. The accommodation proposed consists of: 20no. one-bedroom (two-person) units and a community room at (upper) ground floor level, as well as off-Street under-croft car parking (3no. spaces), 8no. bicycle spaces, plus residents' lock-ups, refuse storage and services infrastructure. The development is laid out in a horse-shoe arrangement around an open-air lightwell/ courtyard, with an external roof terrace for the amenity of residents at fourth floor level. The proposed development includes all associated site works, landscaping, boundary treatments and services installations, as well as upgrading the footpath bounding the site to the east in accordance with DCC standards, with the provision of a vehicle set-down area on this side street. The proposed car park access point is off the rear laneway, with entry to the apartment lift and stair core provided from both the parking area and the footpath running along the eastern elevation. Access to the (upper) ground floor community room is provided directly off Keeper Road and from the rear parking area. The apartment units, from the first to fifth floors, are designed to be fully compliant with D.C.C. and DHPLG standards, including three which meet with the Irish Wheelchair Association Best Practice Housing Guidelines. The majority are dual aspect and have balcony terraces along the northern, eastern, and southern elevations. The total floor area of the proposed development is 1,569 sq.m.
