A study has estimated it would cost €1 billion to move the barracks and build just 1,300 homes on the site.
It is “not really feasible” to use Dublin ’s Cathal Brugha Barracks for housing, the Tánaiste has said.
“The consensus emerging from the studies are that you’ll have to spend about one billion in total for about 1,300 houses,” he said. The study estimated it would cost €497 million to relocate the barracks and a further €499 million to build 1,300 homes on the site.
