Green light for 147 houses

Gannon Properties is awaiting permission for the €40 million complex on a six-acre site close to the new town centre in Clongriffin. Up to 500 jobs are expected to be created during construction. Gannon has spent a fortune on providing a range of public facilities at Clongriffin, including a Dart station, an internal street network, a 460-space park-and-ride facility, supermarket and department store, apartments and houses as well as a range of retail units.
Low rent agreed on showrooms
The Michael Grant Renault dealership has leased the former Winfield motor showrooms at Beach Road, Sandymount, Dublin 4.
Agent CBRE is understood to have secured somewhat less than the asking rent of €100,000 for the 744sq m (8,009sq ft) showrooms on a half-acre of grounds with parking for 40 cars.
The showrooms adjoin the Maxwell service station, which is owned by the McMullan family.
Their retail business has been expanding rapidly on both sides of the Border and, according to chief executive Tom Noonan, they believe that now is the right time to grow their operation. “We are keen to hear from people who want to sell well located, good-sized service stations,” he said.
