Two investment companies who are set to extend Grafton Street-style shopping on to adjoining Nassau Street have received planning approval for a €58m, 7,432sq m (80,000sq ft) retail development.
Investors Meyer Bergman and Kells ICAV hope it will appeal to international traders looking for large stores in Dublin city centre.
The redevelopment of the low-density site at the axis of Nassau Street and Dawson Street will also include about 9,290sq m (100,000 sq ft) of offices on the upper floors.
The plan to replace nine relatively small outlets with several large-format stores coincides with moves by some landlords on Grafton Street and Henry Street to opt for similar floor plates by amalgamating adjoining premises.
The Nassau Street plan includes retail facilities on three levels – basement, ground and mezzanine – and four floors of offices overhead with the main entrance to the offices off Dawson Street. About 50 basement parking spaces will be dropped to a new lower level.
The modern redevelopment of the existing buildings on Nassau Street was designed by architects, Henry J. Lyons. CGI consultants, 3D Design Bureau worked with Henry J. Lyons to build verified view montages and architectural CGIs for both planning and marketing purposes.
