  • An Bord Pleanála refused permission for the construction of 823 apartments on the former Marquee and Tedcastles site.

  • The development included six blocks up to 35 storeys, plus commercial units and community facilities such as a library and medical centre.

  • The refusal was based on concerns that the plan would hinder future educational infrastructure within the Cork Docklands area.

  • The board also found the design and scale would adversely affect the visual character of the city and surrounding landscape.
  • The proposed development would, therefore, be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
    — An Bord Pleanála stated this in its ruling regarding the refused plans.
