A fresh name on the new homes scene surfaced this week when Liberty Developments launched a housing scheme in Navan. The consortium behind the company is none other than Nobby O'Reilly and Jed Pierse of the giant Pierse Construction company. They are joined by Alan and Brian McCormack of Alanas, who have handled many of the tax deals in the IFSC over the past decade. Alanas also managed the extensive portfolio of the Bank of Ireland superannuation fund. Developer extraordinaire Paddy Kelly also has his finger in the pie. Next month, Liberty is due to launch a new development of 189 apartments in the Dublin Docklands.
