13-storey Tallaght tower gets green light
An Bord Pleanála has ruled in favour of a landmark 13-storey apartment tower in Tallaght town centre despite appeals by locals that its massive scale and height would overshadow their homes. Shelbourne Developments - which is run by Garrett Kelleher who recently hit the headlines when he acquired the Lloyds building in London for stg£250 million - has been granted planning permission for the 389-unit tower on the 2.6-acre tax incentive site to the west of The Square shopping centre.
