IPUT plc intends to apply for planning permission for development at this site of c. 0.24 ha (c. 2,435 sq m sq m) at Styne House, Hatch Street Upper, Dublin 2, D02 DY27 for the internal reconfiguration and extension of an existing office development to provide for an overall increase of approximately 100 sq m of additional floorspace. The proposed development will consist of extending the existing ground floor area to include a new café (coffee dock) (73 sq m); the creation of additional office floorspace at first floor level (27 sq m); revisions to internal layout and elevation changes; the lowering of the ground floor entrance; extension of existing reception area at ground floor level at the front of the building on Hatch Street; and new glazing and entrance design. The development will also include changes to existing car and cycle parking areas; new shower, locker, drying room and toilet facilities at basement level, and the omission of 12 no. existing car parking spaces (resulting in a total car parking provision of 52 no. spaces), and provision of 36 no. additional basement cycle parking spaces (resulting in a total cycle parking provision of 100 no. spaces). Vehicular access and egress to the proposed basement level will continue to be from Hatch Street Upper.
