Works are progressing at ‘Pembroke Square’, a €.4.7m restaurant and community development by property giant Hammerson. The scheme, which is due to be completed by September 2020, is located at the former ice skating rink at 1-5 Ashgrove Terrace at the rear of Dundrum Town Centre.
The project involves the creation of a new food hall, restaurant and revamped outdoor space. Upmarket food retailer Fallon & Byrne is lined up as a tenant for the site.
Five vacant two-storey buildings on Ashgrove Terrace, located on Dundrum’s main street, will be refurbished as part of the development, which was approved after a local resident’s appeal to An Bord Pleanála was ruled invalid.
A new two-storey building will be built at the rear of the existing vacant structures, connecting Ashgrove Terrace to the shopping centre’s Pembroke Square.
This will create a 1,000 sq m restaurant and food hall, with entrances on the main street and the new square, as well as an outdoor seating area and a first-floor terrace.
As well as the Fallon & Byrne outlet, there are also plans to develop a smaller café or restaurant, a basement-level leisure or entertainment facility and a multipurpose outdoor space.
Within the plans, it is suggested that the square could be used for events such as food and craft markets, exhibitions, an outdoor cinema, food and beverage stalls or retail concessions.
CGI Consultants, 3D Design Bureau worked closely with architects, Lafferty and developer Hammerson to produce accurate, photo-realistic architectural CGIs and verified view montages to help secure planning and visualise this project.
