Project:Grangegorman Dublin
Overview:The redevelopment of the 73 Acre Grangegorman Site in Dublin, its role in accommodating both educational and healthcare uses, and its potential to contribute to the economic growth and connectivity of the neighbourhood and the city has been recognised as a key public project in the current national Development Plan. Grangegorman has been a healthcare facility since the 1700’s.

The Grangegorman Development Agency (GDA) is a statutory agency established in 2006 by the Irish Government to redevelop the former St. Brendan's Hospital grounds in Dublin city centre. The GDA aims to create a vibrant new city quarter with a diverse mix of uses, in a way that is sensitive to the context of the Grangegorman site, its surrounding neighbourhoods and the existing community. The challenge is to plan for and implement a complex, multi-phased development that provides:

  • a high quality area with physical linkages to Smithfield, Phibsborough, Prussia Street and the City Centre
  • new health care facilities for the Health Services Executive (HSE)
  • a new urban campus for Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT), bringing together all students and staff into one location
  • new arts, cultural, recreational and public spaces to serve the community and the city
  • a primary school, public library and children's play spaces
  • complementary mixed-use development
Survey Requirements:Detailed Survey Data of circa 73 Acres Topographical and Measured Build.
