on the previous page it says 17 floors going up to 60 metres so for dublin its relatively high-hopefully in 10 years time this will be just a groundscraper cause practically every else in the world it would be, but I have to say i quite like it,havent seen many building around with this design. The blanch sign is a nice touch aswell…
Here is image of finished apartment block being constructed along side the Crowne Plaza hotel which is also being built at Blanchardstown Town Centre. It is called Falcon’s View. See property spiel from Hooke and McDonald who are the agents for it.
Imagine a development of two bedroom apartments where your wish list is fulfilled. • Stylish design • Generous living spaces • Stunning views • Award winning Shopping Centre and Retail Park • UCI cinema complex at your door • Parklands and civic spaces • Regular buses to the city centre • Easy nationwide motorway access Falcons View offers everything a resident needs on their doorstep and the landmark building with 14 storeys will mark a new transition for Blanchardstown. The developer own and built Blanchardstown shopping centre.

That « Landmark » lark has been used in nearly every new project over the last few years, it will soon be synonymous with everything that is bad!
God that render really looks like an updated version of the Ballymun flats
(never thought I’d use the phrase a new Ballymun about a new high rise but there you go);)
it’s probably made out of better material than reinforced cardboard though, and not gonna become a sink estate. but yeh, it kinda does!
i hope the hotel part looks better than that.
What about this render of the aparthotel in the pdf.Is this a different building or has the design changed…?
it must have as the facade/windows are already being added to the lower floors now and it matches the finished product in the image I provided earlier. The shot you have must have been part of a proposed image.
Anyone know what the deal with this pic i got from the FV website is,are the buildings down the bottom for real,or are they just the work of some architect with an over active imagination
Probably just lifted from representative ideas on the masterplan.
“Falcon’s View” – where do they get these names from
Drove by this a couple of times. Does not look bad at all really.
Traffic camera image is a little small but you can clearly see the Quinn Direct building and the new one being built behind
Yes,, I think there is just one more floor to be added to the apartment block. The hotel element which is a few floors lower than the apartment block already has been topped out. It does look quiet well when driving citybound from Clonee/Navan side. I’ll try and get the camera out for updated snaps when it has been topped out which should be very soon.

Does anybody else think that the relativly low density one/two/three storey houses built by the council about 4 years ago opposite the blanch centre are a ridiculous waste of land? right beside a shopping, commercial and transport hub (and the metro will eventually cut thru also).

Is that really the cladding or is it an undersurface. Shudder if it’s the final product
Another new building at Blanchardstown Centre
i can’t see it. is it another highrise?
Me neither
Today’s Indo said that Green Properties have received permission for an 8 storey office blook at Westend Retail park in Blanch (which is where Borders Books/Argos are located). Wonder where exactly it will be located as I don’t recall seeing much open space available left around there anymore.
sorry, a mixed use development and not office block.
Green Property Limited has obtained planning permission for the construction of an eight-storey mixed use retail and commercial development at a site known as C & D, Westland Retail Park, Blanchardstown Centre. Coolmine, Dublin 15.
