Following its sale for around €67 million to a group of international real estate investors, it's being reported that the new owners of the Old Central Bank building in Dublin plan for a viewing tower and a restaurant/cafe as part of what would be a multi use building.
The investors, who purchased the building in January, are due to release more details about their plans in the coming weeks, reports 98fm, which adds that the old structure is now expected to undergo a number of changes, with the surrounding fending could be removed making the area between Dame Street andDame Street more pedestrian friendly.
After rumours circulated last year that the building was being looked at by a number of high-profile hotel developers, the idea that the property would be converted into a hotel was eventually ruled out, with one party saying "the numbers for a hotel simply don't stack up".
