Planning has been lodged for a long awaited redevelopment of Crumlin Shopping Centre, which has been falling into a state of derelict since the 2010s.
Dunnes Stores-owned company Better Value Limited has submitted planning which would see the site transformed with a new Dunnes anchor unit, a food market, cafe, four independent units, a gym and library.
The “landmark” new shopping centre has the potential to provide up to 450 jobs when operational.
Planning documents which have now been lodged with Dublin City Council state that the scheme provides “for a vibrant shopping centre” that would replace the existing “dilapidated” Crumlin Shopping Centre.

A new lease of life
The fate of the shopping centre has been a hot topic of conversation for years, with expired planning applications, abandoned plans for demolishment and unsuccessful attempts to get the building on the derelict sites register.
The plans lodged by Dunnes Stores include a food market, café, gym and library, as well as a larger store for Dunnes themselves. Cornelscourt could never.

A look at the proposed redevelopment.
Dunnes Stores have announced plans to redevelop the Crumlin Shopping Centre site. The plans would include the demolition of all existing structures, a café, food court & gym to be developed and the size of Dunnes itself on the site to be expanded.
Given the site has been shamefully largely left derelict for a long time, many people will agree its positive to see something finally happening.
