Moore Street Land Deal Swap Vote Postponed
A vote on a proposed land swap deal that seeks to secure the restoration of the 1916 site in Moore Street, has been suspended.
The swap proposed involves developers Chartered Land agreeing to secure the Moore Street site of the 1916 Rising, ahead of the centenary celebrations, in exchange for Dublin City Council handing over 24 and 25 Moore Street.
Chartered Land have planning permission to develop a shopping centre surrounding Moore Street.
The new deal sees Chartered Land also offering to include No 10 Moore Street, which includes the gable wall that rebels first tunneled through as they escaped from the GPO.
The remaining buildings on Moore Street would be demolished but Chartered Land point out that many were rebuilt since the Rising.
A proposal by Lord Mayor Christy Burke to postpone a vote on the land swap because of the latest offer was accepted by councillors.
