Project Description

This project consisted of the refurbishment of the existing County Council Area Office, Library and Courtroom and the construction of an extension. The building now houses the Limerick County Council Local Area Offices, Public Library and Public Meeting / Multi Purpose Area. Additional car parking has been provided to the rear of the building.

The building is generally constructed of masonry and concrete with a concrete 1st floor, and steel flat roof to the extension. The existing building is generally of stone with a timber pitched roof. The existing timber 1st floor was replaced to provide greater load carrying capacity.
