New Scheme Launches To Redevelop St Agatha's Court In Dublin

A new scheme to redevelop St Agatha's Court in Dublin has launched.

The development is a partnership between Peter McVerry Trust, DRHE/Dublin City Council and the Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government. The value of the project, funded through the Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government's Capital Assistance Scheme and Peter McVerry Trust is €1.4 million and it will deliver 10 one-bedroom apartments and one two-bedroom townhouse for people exiting homelessness and those on the social housing waiting lists.


The units are for single people on the Dublin City Council's housing list, with the exception of a single two-bed townhouse unit.

Minister for Housing and Urban Renewal Damien English said: "I would like to acknowledge the Peter McVerry Team for their tireless commitment to tackling homelessness and for their support in rolling out the Rebuilding Ireland Action Plan, including bringing this project to fruition. I would also like to thank the Dublin Region Homeless Executive, Dublin City Council and officials at my Department for working together to advance this beautiful scheme."
