Demolition Of Apollo House To Go Ahead

Plans to demolish historic Apollo House on Tara Street have been given the green light by An Bord Pleanála. 

The building will be replaced by a brand new plaza. 

It will be bulldozed, along with neighbouring building Hawkins House, to create a ten-story office quarter complete with shops, restaurants, and a public plaza. 

The planning authority envisages it as being a "mid-town" area of Dublin similar to that of the office district in New York.
