The Irish Georgian Society has submitted an observation to the recent planning application (3052/14) lodged by the ESB for redevelopment of their HQ premises on Fitzwilliam Street. Amongst other points, the observation states that insufficient information has been provided to enable the impact on the adjacent protected structures, forming part of the site proposed for inscription under the (UNESCO) World Heritage Tentative List, to be assessed. Additional information has been requested.

The letter submitted to Dublin City Council is available to read by clicking on the following link.
