AN BORD Pleanála has today announced planning permission has been granted for Limerick’s €180 Million Project Opera development.
The iconic site will be the largest inner-city commercial development outside of Dublin City and will be capable of employing up to 3,000 people across a 450,000 sq ft development.
The 1.62-hectare is the largest project in the Limerick Twenty Thirty programme and will be developed over a six-year period at a total cost of around €180 m. It is fully funded thanks to commitments from the European Investment Bank and the Council of Europe Development Bank.
The site was acquired by the then Limerick City Council in 2011 after a previous plan to develop it collapsed during the crash.
