10 Hanover Quay Brochure AN EXCEPTIONAL WATERFRONT OPPORTUNITY 2 Ten Hanover Quay 3 69,000 sq.ft. The most distinctive new office development on the doorstep of the Capital Dock campus, in Dublin’s Docklands. 4 Ten Hanover Quay An industrial past; an innovative future Ten Hanover Quay, Dublin 2 is one of the most exciting and unique office developments in Dublin’s Docklands. Once a former home to the Raleigh Bicycle Company in the mid 1940’s, Ten Hanover Quay has been re-imagined to provide a dynamic office environment. The contemporary architectural design respects the trading quayside heritage of an 1880’s Dockland warehouse offering a unique workplace full of character with flexibility to configure collaborative office space. 5 6 Ten Hanover Quay 7 An architectural collaboration The vision between Mola, OMP and Cathal Crimmins Architecture. As designers of Ten Hanover Quay, we were very conscious of the important legacy of Dockland’s Architecture and the fact that the building is the last remaining warehouse in the area. As such the architecture is unapologetically robust, strong in geometric form, sympathetic to the Protected Structure and provides a clear and delicate transition between the existing and new interventions. We wanted to design a building that respected its past but provided a contemporary and fresh counterpoint to the stone and brick facades of the warehouse. The new elements are designed in steel and aluminium and reminiscent of the Dockland’s heritage of cranes, grain silos, gantries and gasometers which are strong structural forms with cantilevers and exposed bracing. By floating a new roof over the warehouse structure we have flooded the building with natural light and opened up unique and spectacular views of the Dublin Docklands. Located at the meeting point of the Liffey, Dodder and Grand Canal Basin; Ten Hanover Quay has unrivalled views and is the ultimate waterfront site. 8 Ten Hanover Quay Truly unique design SEVEN EFFICIENT 1,900 SQ .FT ULTRA MODERN PANORAMIC 16 SHOWERS, WITH FLOOR PLATES PRIVATE TERRACE OFFICE WATERFRONT CHANGING AND RANGING FROM SPECIFICATIONS VIEWS WITH DRYING FACILITIES 2,700 SQ .FT.

The beautiful stone, circular rosette windows and timber arched doorways of the triple-gable-fronted, nine-bay warehouse has been carefully retained and restored. 11 12 Ten Hanover Quay Careful consideration and meticulous detail 13 The unique design is apparent upon entering through the Victorian arches to reveal a reception area which provides an immediate impact and sense of arrival. A rich palette of materials such as zinc-coloured metaline porcelain stoneware, corten steel mesh, charred timber and Kebony cladding with a sprayed metal deck creates a contemporary warehouse inspired design. 14 Ten Hanover Quay Workspace that inspires 15 Ten Hanover Quay offers seven highly efficient and flexible floor plates. The design allows for a unique exposed ceiling featuring castellated steel beams and/or the option of suspended ceilings and painted plasterboard columns in the new build element. Occupiers will benefit from clear floor-to-ceiling heights which vary from 2.7 m to 3.4m. 1616 TenTen HanoverHanover QuayQuay 17 18 Ten Hanover Quay Unparalleled access to local amenities at the Capital Dock campus and Grand Canal Dock 19 The HQ building is adjacent to riverfront promenades, parkland landscaping, triple lock gates, active public square (Three Locks Square), restaurants and a wide variety of retail and exciting food and beverage options. 20 Ten Hanover Quay Character and design in perfect harmony 21 The contemporary exposed steel frame provides a stunning contrast to the original granite/ashlar stone and brick perimeter walls at ground and first floor level as the glass structure of the new offices rises above. 22 Ten Hanover Quay 23 The fifth floor provides an Extensive extensive terrace area while the state-of-the-art design allows terrace area floors 3 to 5 to cantilever over the transformed warehouse and glazed atrium below. 24 Ten Hanover Quay Outstanding panoramic views 25 The building design provides the ultimate in flexible workspace with floor plates ranging from 2,700 sq.ft to 19,200 sq.ft. 26 Ten Hanover Quay Light-filled space 27 28 Ten Hanover Quay Dublin’s most vibrant docklands location 29 Ten Hanover Quay completes the South Dockland’s skyline with its unique architectural features.

  • From Alternative to Mainstream
    CHAPTER 1 From Alternative to Mainstream Alternatives Ascending Foreword The specter of market volatility brought on by large-scale events, such as global pandemic- related lockdowns in early 2020, has had a strong influence on investor approaches to their portfolios. Investors are responding by building resilience into their portfolios to navigate a future with the potential for enormous surprises. Alternative asset managers face a complex mix of opportunities and challenges presented by strong investor appetite for diversification, as well as broader industry pressures. BNY Mellon, in conjunction with Mergermarket, surveyed 100 institutional investors and 100 alternative asset managers on their perceptions of current trends in the space and on whether the two sides are moving in the same direction. The findings show changing investor and asset manager attitudes and behavior, in some cases contrasting with our 2017 research report, The Race for Assets.1 In addition to shifting investor needs, highlighted in Chapter 1 of this study, alternative asset managers face structural changes within their organizations. A majority of alternative asset manager respondents cite forces of increased competition and changing economics as top factors driving structural change. They see increased product innovation as another significant structural game-changer. Like their peers in the broader asset management industry,2 alternative asset managers are deploying digital and data analysis technologies to increase efficiency, overcome regulatory hurdles, promote product innovation and improve reporting. 1 https://www.bnymellon.com/us/en/insights/content-series/the-race-for-assets.html 2 https://www.bnymellon.com/us/en/insights/asset-management-transformation-is-already-here/survey-research-series-overview.html 2 The need for robust data management and analytics is also bringing new complexities to the fore.

Unpublished © Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat / Brian Duffy The Need for Vision: Tall Buildings in Dublin Brian Duffy Associate, Traynor O’Toole Architects – 49 Upper Mount Street, Dublin 2, Ireland Abstract The Celtic Tiger economy in Ireland has dramatically changed the substance of life in Ireland within a very short space of time. Whilst the infrastructure has struggled to keep up, the urban realm has begun the process of rapidly transforming Dublin from a low rise city of urban sprawl, to a densely woven contemporary modern environment. The appetite to build tall is tempered by an apprehensive planning policy, that reflects the cautious mood of the general public. Such apprehension restricts the possibility of creating an of-its-time City that meets it demands sustainably, whilst fulfilling its high aspirations. The paper examines planning policies and how Dublin architects have pursued tall buildings, most typically in the city centre. This is then contrasted with an alternative approach on the edge of the city, where one major landowner and [email protected] design team have proposed an entire masterplanning vision, premised on the inclusion of tall buildings. This untypical approach yields notable success and, in doing so, highlights the need for a more proactive and interactive approach to Biography Briantall building Duffy qualifiedstrategic planningfrom Queens on behalf University of architects, Belfast, developers Northern Ireland, and planners before alike.
