€12m Scheme in Dublin 1
Irish Times Commercial Property Section, Wednesday June 29th 2005

The striking €12 million Belmont Apartment and retail project by Chesterbridge Developments Ltd. at the corner of Gardiner St. Middle and Summerhill is nearing completion.

The mixed-use development includes 62 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom apartments and two ground level retail units offering a combined 353m² (3,800^ft). The corner feature building is U-shaped and terraced, from three floors up to five floors at the corner.

Chesterbridge is a property vehicle for Paul Newman, Mick Whelan and Paul Hanby, and Belmont is the company’s third Dublin inner city regeneration project.

Earlier developments included the 586 unit apartment and retail Custom House Square in the IFSC, Dublin 1 and St. Patrick’s Court in Clanbrassil Street, Dublin 8.

Belmont now fills the last available open space along Gardiner Street from Mountjoy Square down to the Custom House and completes the transformation of the once seriously run down thoroughfare.
