An Coimisiún Pleanála has approved plans with revised conditions to extend the existing office building at Mespil Court, Dublin 4, along Mespil Road and the Grand Canal.
3D Design Bureau provided verified view montages showing winter and summer conditions and a daylight and sunlight assessment report. These materials assisted the local authority in evaluating the extension’s impact on surrounding areas.
The daylight and sunlight assessment examined the development’s effects on neighbouring properties and outdoor spaces, demonstrating compliance with required standards.
A new three-storey extension will house additional office space, an external plant room, and ancillary facilities. It will include a ground-floor café with outdoor seating. The development includes updated bicycle parking facilities and pedestrian access improvements.

Let us help you secure planning!
The approved design incorporates revised landscaping and boundary treatments, including replacing the existing Mespil Road wall and railing, installing a pedestrian access control gate, and adding green and blue roof systems.
The conditions set out in An Coimisiún Pleanála’s inspector report are designed to protect neighbouring amenity, including enhanced screening and fritted glazing on the new office extension. Mature trees at the site frontage will be replaced with new landscaping, while final details of external signage will be agreed with the planning authority. Controlled pedestrian access will also be maintained as part of the revised boundary treatments.
The development will add to the ongoing evolution of the Grand Canal area’s commercial and public amenities.
