Blackrock picked for Dublin Market
Published: 18 February, 2008
A consortium led by Blackrock International Land - a spin-off from Fyffes property company - has been selected by Dublin City Council as the preferred bidder for the redevelopment of the three-acre Market Area in the city centre.
A consortium, owned 50 per cent by Blackrock and 50 per cent by the Linders and Kelly families, aims to turn it into a "new destination" in the city with a new open-air plaza surrounded by a covered food market, restaurants and bars, retail, office and residential accommodation and a new community centre.
Consultations will commence shortly with Dublin City Council.
