Cooldown Commons Phase 3, Citywest, Tallaght
Located on an urban green field site to the southeast of the Cooldown Commons Phase 2 development, the residential development Cooldown Commons Phase 3 for Cairn Homes at Fortunestown Lane, Citywest, Dublin 24, is within close proximity to the Citywest Shopping centre to the south and immediately adjacent to the Fortunestown LUAS stop on the Red Line.
It provides 405 no. build-to-sell residential apartments within 6 no. apartment blocks (ranging from 6-9 storeys) and 3 number of three storey Blocks of Own Door Ground Floor Apartments with Duplex Apartments above.
The Cooldown Commons development increases the efficient use of this green field site by generating an appropriate density of 119units/ha, taking into consideration the location
relative to an excellent public transport network.
Following Phase 1 & 2, the proposed residential design is supported by high quality amenity spaces for all residents along with a public café, retail units and office space, all accessible from the ground floor level along the edges of a south facing Public Plaza, by residents and visitors alike.
Soft landscaped areas are designed to provide amenity and create an integrated network of biodiversity strips, linking, preserving, and incorporating existing wildlife corridors into ‘Greenlinks’ which are perfectly connecting private open spaces discreetly hidden among the buildings and public open spaces, to include the gateway Public Plaza with direct access to public transport, a Residents’ Park, and a linear Link Park.
The scheme (Phase 3) offers low carbon dioxide (CO2) emission design as well as high adaptable apartment layouts, providing a high-quality addition to the previously completed Phases.
