This project comprised of the conservation, restoration and refurbishment of the Albert Quay House – a protected structure on Albert Quay in Cork.
This involved the temporary removal of the protected boundary wall, which we rebuilt to the original. We restored what existing windows we could and removed, restored, painted and reinstalled the metal railings as well as repairing and restoring the roof.
We cleaned and treated the existing limestone façade, which played a big part in restoring the building to its former glory.
This development won the Best New Development Award at the 2006 Cork City Centre Better Building Awards.
