Summary:
- Planning permission has been granted for a 115-bed student accommodation development in Pennywell, Limerick, consisting of 17 apartments across four to six storeys on the former A&R Supplies and Spirit Memorials commercial site near Limerick School of Art and Design (LSAD).
- The 3,309 sqm purpose-built student accommodation will feature communal facilities including a reception, laundry, staff office, internal courtyard, and 96 bicycle parking spaces, enhancing amenity and connectivity within 800 metres of Limerick city centre.
- Following an initial refusal, the revised plans reduced the building height from seven to six storeys, addressing local impact concerns while aiming to deliver a contemporary design suited to student living in a residential neighbourhood.
