That is the model… the second image down on the rhs is the central “tower” and is only its plant equipment higher than the corner building in the model.
Have all 3 ‘tall’ buildings recommended for the area under the strategy for building heights been given the chop?
did anyone notice the ‘arc in the park’ bridge in the model or is that gone too?
That’s just phase 1; phase 2 has the pedestrian bridge and apartment building. The other two tall buildings for the area haven’t been designed yet as far as I know.
well the model encompasses the entire site, so the other buildings must be on the other side of the river?
lets be honest here, that bridge is never going to be builtSorry to be a pedant, but since I like tall buildings and nice bridges I’ll wait for a second planning application:

“The first phase, designed by Anthony Reddy Associates, incorporates 1 million sq ft of offices, apartments, cultural and recreational space to the west of Military Road, on a site currently occupied by a series of concrete sheds.
The second phase, which is being designed by Paul Keogh Architects, covers a site of nearly five acres east of Military Road on which there is a number of listed, but quite ordinary, historic buildings associated with the Royal Hospital.
A total of 650 family-sized apartments are planned in the two phases, including 130 in the social and affordable housing category, with direct access by an elevated walkway and cycle route to Heuston Station and the Phoenix Park.”
The shape of the Anthony Reddy development would imply that it is to the East of Military Road, fronting onto St. John’s Road.
