Multi-million plan to transform Cork docklands

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2001 / December 11 2001: Multi-million plan to transform Cork docklands

The Cork Docklands Development Strategy, a vision for the proposed new urban quarter in the city, will be unveiled formally tonight. The scope of the project is vast. Its cost will run to hundreds of millions of euros, and its effect on Cork city over the next two decades will be dramatic. The docklands on either side of the Lee, already close to the city centre, will be swept away over the life of the plan, and replaced. In their place will be 6,000 new homes, including high-density apartments, office and retail space, part of the UCC campus, as well as culture and leisure facilities
