500 apartments proposed for former CIE site in CabraFormer CIÉ lands at Carnlough Road in Cabra, Dublin 7 will be turned into a major residential development if a planning application to Dublin City Council by Niall Molloy's Ailesbury Co-ownership is successful.
This would involve the demolition of numbers 2 and 4 Carnlough Road to provide an access, and the construction of 523 apartments, duplexes and terraced houses on the eight-acre site. The apartments would be in six blocks with an eight-storey tower element.
The proposal is also for a crèche, retail unit and civic centre. There would be a pedestrian entrance onto Faussaugh Avenue and 618 car-parking spaces.

Council rejects plans for 49 homes in Carrickmines
Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council has refused the Parkway Partnership planning permission for a development of 36 apartments and 13 detached houses off Cornelscourt Hill Road in Carrickmines, Dublin 18.
Parkway was looking to refurbish Claremont, a protected structure, demolish the existing single storey kitchen extension and build a new kitchen. The developer was also looking to refurbish the gate-lodge at Claremont and turn it into a three-bed private dwelling and to demolish St Bernards, a single storey detached house as well as its gate-lodge.
Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council decided that the proximity, scale and design of the proposed development would adversely affect the setting of Claremont and would represent an unacceptable intrusion on the setting of the protected structure.
