About Cuprum Properties Ltd
Planning agents acting for the receivers of Apollo House have written to Dublin City Council to confirm their intention to demolish it and the adjoining Long Stone Pub to make way for the construction of an 11-storey office building.
The development will be part of the creation of a new 'midtown' area in the city.
Apollo House became a focal point for Dublin's homeless crisis last year after it was occupied by activists supported by celebrities, including singer Glen Hansard.
The removal of the building from the Dublin skyline is set to take 24 weeks, according to the demolition and site clearance schedule lodged with Dublin City Council on December 1.
Dublin-based Hegarty Demolition has been appointed by Nama-appointed receivers to developer Garrett Kelleher's Cuprum Properties Ltd to carry out the required works.
