The city centre is located within walking distance of the Guinness Storehouse, St Patrick’s Cathedral and Christchurch.
In a press statement, BAM Ireland said: “Since 2015, the pace of regeneration around Newmarket has positively reshaped the area, transforming the former industrial units and vacant sites to new commercial uses, residential, student housing schemes, hotels and visitor attractions, including the extremely popular Dublin Liberties Distillery.”
The 29,570m² development, which will offer a mix of studio, one, two and three-bed apartments, is expected to primarily serve accommodation demand in Dublin’s private rented sector.
The scheme’s 151-bedroom hotel, to be operated by Premier Inn, will comprise a bar, restaurant, a café and public areas.
