Plans have been announced for over 1,250 new homes at the Central Mental Hospital site in Dundrum in Dublin.
The Land Development Agency said the development will include houses, apartments, duplex apartments and homes specifically designed for older residents.
The houses will largely be located at the exterior of the development, with apartments at the centre.
The tallest building at the centre of the development will be 11 storeys high and the “typical building height” will be between four and eight storeys.
The LDA said the mix of homes on the site has yet to be confirmed by Government; however, “the primary focus of the development will be social and affordable housing and the majority of homes will fit that criteria.”
