Dublin City Council approved the applications in early 2022 but they were appealed to the board by a number of Moore Street preservation and 1916 Rising relatives organisations, as well as local businesses and Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald. The construction of an archway beside the national monument which broke up the Moore Street terrace, which was opposed by appellants, has also been approved as part of this application.
Planning permission on the application surrounding the National Monument will last for seven years with a 12 year duration on the other two. Three more applications are expected to be lodged by Hammerson to complete other parts of the vast site.
