Point Village Shopping Centre

I don't think the Sherrif street one is a scherzer. The two sets on the quays are

I am told to the two on the actual quays themselves are Scherzer Rolling lift bascule bridges and the one on Sheriff Street.

The other bridge - "Spenser bridge" over Sheriff Street is apparently inoperable and is a balance beam bascule bridge. As per the below article it is due a renovation in the near future.

crossfit are opening in point square

They're opening in a unit on the lane between the student accommodation and the Gibson, not the big unit which recently sought a planning change

The new flyefit gym will be located beside the luas stop just inside the entrance to the jervis shopping centre as the wall where the atm is just before you go up the escalator has been adjusted with a temporary wall

Was wondering what they've been doing there, cheers! On the doorstep of my office!

Ronan gets go-ahead for apartments in docklands
Build-to-rent apartments at Spencer Place aimed at upper end of rental market

Johnny Ronan’s Ronan Group Real Estate (RGRE) has secured permission from An Bord Pleanála to develop 464 build-to-rent (BTR) apartments and 200 co-living bed spaces in the Dublin docklands.

Located immediately adjacent to Salesforce’s new European headquarter campus, which is under construction, the units at Spencer Place will be distributed across two blocks rising in height to 11 (40.5m) and 13 storeys (47m) respectively.

While RGRE had permission in place previously for a residential scheme at the docklands campus, the original planning consent had provided for 349 apartments and a 100-bed aparthotel in two seven-storey blocks. An Bord Pleanála’s approval of RGRE’s revised plan for the site will see the delivery of an additional 115 apartments and the replacement of the proposed aparthotel with 200 shared bedspaces across a total of 120 bedrooms.

The apartments have been designed to cater for the upper end of the residential rental market, and will include a hotel-style lobby reception with concierge desk manned on a 24/7 basis, an electric car share club, a rooftop residents’ lounge and garden with fitted barbeque facilities, a penthouse residents’ gym, private dining spaces and a multimedia room.

Urban campus
Upon completion, the residential units will account for 370,354sq ft (34,707sq m) of the 717,000sq ft (66,599sq m) of space RGRE is set to deliver as part of its wider mixed-use scheme at Spencer Place. The balance of the development will accommodate Salesforce’s new urban campus, and a new hotel operated by Dalata which will be known as the Samuel.

RGRE and its partners, Colony Capital, are in the process of selecting a buyer for the Spencer Place residential scheme, having invited a number of institutional investors to acquire the portfolio by way of a forward-funding deal at a guide price in excess of €250 million.

Welcoming An Bord Pleanála’s approval of its application for the additional residential units at Spencer Place, a spokesman for RGRE said: “This is an example of the progressive approach to planning and land use we have been advocating for in Dublin and which we have consistently urged Dublin City

Taller structures
In a separate, albeit related, development, RGRE is in the process of seeking permission from Dublin City Council to increase the height of Salesforce’s new European headquarter office building at the front of the site from nine to 13 storeys.

Having rejected the developer’s two previous efforts to raise the block’s height from nine to 11 floors, the council subsequently conducted a review of building heights in the North Lotts and Grand Canal Dock Strategic Development Zone (SDZ). Following this, it submitted a proposal to An Bord Pleanála on May 31st last, recommending that structures of up to 13 storeys be permitted in the area to the front of the Salesforce campus site at Spencer Place. The board has yet to reach a determination on the matter.

Thats it all there ^^

"Co-living bed spaces". That's a new one for me

The replacement for bedsits, but nobody prices them as such - they're actually usually priced premium!

Sub hotel room sized room, usually a single, with tiny ensuite and possibly tiny cooking facilities; then there'll be larger shared laundries/kitchens/dining rooms/living rooms and in many of the bigger ones a basic gym.

You can stay in your cell room if you want or treat it more like college accom and socialise / used the shared facilities. Usually extremely flexible terms which is possibly the only advantage.
