Re: Carmelite Place – Part Deux

🙂 Corbett Bros. are seeking to lodge an application for a 22-unit apartment development over basement car-park with CCC soon. The 3-storey, roof terraced development is destined for Carmelite Place, off the Western Road and is designed by James Leahy & Associates. The site was bought quietly in August of 2003 from vendor Dermot O’Keefe, who had previously sought permission for a 4-storey, 20-unit student apartment development over basement car-park (designed by PRC Architects) and was refused on appeal. As part of the project, the 6-terraced houses at Carmelite Place, and Carmelite Stores, will be demolished.

These images are a few months old – details of backyard space, comparitive perspectives and other shots are also available, if needed.

🙂 Work has got well underway at the Mercy University Hospital on the €2m vertical extension of its Theatre Department. The project includes the development of new staff facilities, storage, CSSD and a new theatre to replace the existing ‘Doctor’s Lounge’. The design is by Reddy O’Riordan Staehli and John Sisk & Sons Ltd are on site.

😎 A substantial (approx. 297 units & 6 serviced sites – tbc) mixed housing project is set to be lodged with Cork County Council for lands near Cobh town imminently. The project, back by investors, inlcuding JJ & Mary Frahill – will comprise of mixed terraced, semi-detached, detached, duplex and apartment units all at lands in Ballyleary.
