Construction on a housing development for older people in Coolock will begin next week.
The project is set to revamp the existing Glin Court housing complex. All ground floor units will be fully wheelchair accessible for residents.
The development will create 32 homes for older people in Coolock. A landscaped residential courtyard will also be constructed, alongside a modern community centre and kitchen.
Lord Mayor of Dublin Caroline Conroy said: “I am delighted to see the redevelopment of Glin Court in Coolock begin. The redevelopment will see the transformation of older persons accommodation from small bedsits into modern one bed apartments. The new apartments will be designed to Universal Standards to allow older people to remain living with independence in their homes for as long as possible.”
