Permission refused for 360 bed co-living development

Dublin Correspondent
Permission has been refused for a 360 bed co-living development in a historic part of Dublin's north city, which would have included a 14-storey block beside Dublin's Victorian Fruit and Vegetable Market.
The board ruled that the proposed development would "seriously detract from the setting and character" of the Halston Street Conservation Area.
The area has six protected buildings including St Michan's Church, the Fruit and Vegetable Market, Green Street Courthouse and the Debtors' Prison as well as St Michan's Park.

An Taisce had opposed the development and spokesperson Kevin Duff welcomed the decision saying the scheme, which also involved an eight-storey block beside St Michan's Church, represented over-development of a sensitive area.
