The site is principally bounded by Herbert Park (road) to the west, Herbert Park (public park) to the south, the Herbert Park Hotel and Aparthotel to the east, and Pembroke Place to the north. The demolition of former houses at Nos. 36, 38 and 40 Herbert Park was carried out under permission references DCC 3970/17 (ABP-300976) and ABP-307197-20. The proposed development seeks amendments to consented Strategic Housing Development ABP-307197-20. The proposed amendments to ABP Ref. ABP-307197-20 at this site broadly comprise design modifications to the permitted residential apartment building, dwelling mix and associated site works, to include: Addition of between 1no. and 2no. floors to the permitted building increasing the highest point from 12-storeys to 14-storeys, overall resulting in a modulating residential building height of 3 to 14 storeys, over basement. Amendment to 51no. of the 103no: permitted apartment units, resulting in a revised dwelling mix of 20no. 1-bed, 6no. 2-bed (3 person), 60no. 2-bed (4 person), 14no. 3-bed and 3no. 4-bed apartments, with no change to the overall total number of permitted units (i.e. 103no. dwellings). Amendments to permitted balconies to accommodate the new unit mix proposals. In addition, 9no. wintergardens replace 9no. permitted balconies on the southwest elevation, and also the addition of 4no. new wintergardens and 13no. new balconies at Levels 04, 07 and 09, affecting all elevations at these levels. Increase of typical 'floor to floor' height from c.3150mm to c.3300mm at each floor from Level 07 to Level 13 inclusive. Removal of 1no. car parking space at basement level to now result in a total 83no. car parking spaces. 106no. additional bicycle parking spaces (60no. at surface level courtyards to the front (west) and rear (east) of the building, and 46no. at basement level), resulting in a total of 236no. permitted and proposed bike parking spaces. Adjustments to surface courtyard areas to accommodate new bicycle parking. Adjustments to roof garden now proposed at roof level above Level 07. All roof plant and telecom antennae are now positioned at roof level above Level 13. Omission of permitted surface water sewer outfall extension to existing culvert at Ballsbridge Terrace, and replacement with combined surface water and foul drainage outfall connection to the existing combined sewer at Herbert Park (public road).
