Bord rejects a scheme at Grand Parade and St Patrick's Street in Cork

AN ATTEMPT by PadLake Ltd to build a scheme at Grand Parade and St Patrick's Street in Cork has been rejected by the appeals board as it would "detrimentally" interfere with the historic character of the streets.

Headed by Joe O'Donovan, Padlake proposed a five-storey scheme with 8,999sq m (96,864sq ft) of shops and offices of 3,276sq m (35,263sq ft) which involved demolishing the Capital Cinema on Grand Parade, 21-23 Grand Parade, 55-57 St Patrick's Street and the Vineyard Bar on Market Lane.
