Planning permission was granted to demolish the Liffey Trust building, an ESB sub-station and a house structure and to erect an eight-storey over basement building comprising offices, retail and residential units, and associated services, works and connections.

There was no evidence for any archaeological deposits or structures revealed during excavation for the groundworks. The site lies in an area which was originally laid out in regular plot units without buildings. An 1809 map indicated that the land was still a ‘greenfield area’. The OS map of 1876 indicated later industrial development on the lands which incorporated the site.
