Project Description

The development involves the construction of 480 residential units, over two distinct phases, complete with crèche, retail units and café on the former Magee Barracks, Kildare Town.

The project involves the demolition of 16 no. concrete structures and a water tower, and includes the treatment of invasive species. The existing site is heavily serviced, involving the diversion of foul and rising foul drainage. Both stages require submission through the Strategic Housing Development planning process.
