RESIDENTS of Stepaside will be interested to see what further details P Elliott Co has submitted in relation to plans for more than 410 residential units to the south west of the Aiken’s Village housing scheme in south Dublin.
The local authority had sought further details from the developer on its plans for the 29-acre site, which would include 206 houses and 204 apartments, last September and the new information was submitted this week.
Meanwhile, plans by P Elliott Co to move the bronze plaque commemorating 1916 Rising leader Seán MacDiarmada at the former Irish Timesheadquarters on D'Olier Street have hit a stumbling block.
Dublin City Council said that the new location proposed for the plaque was “not considered acceptable”.
It told the builder to find a prominent new location “ensuring that the plaque can be located and read easily at all times”. The plaque to MacDiarmada, who was executed after the Rising, was unveiled by then president Eamon de Valera in 1967.
