The 3.7-acre Opera Square project will be a landmark mixed use development in a regional and national context and one that will reflect Limerick’s status as a leading city in sustainability and innovation.
Opera Square included the largest new civic space to be created in Limerick City Centre in over 100 years. The project blends new next generation structures with 16 carefully preserved heritage buildings. Set around a large pedestrianised square, it includes library, hotel and leisure spaces, and places to live and work.
The project is well underway, with enabling and demolition works completed in 2022 and the first commercial space, One Opera Square including 10,000m2 of basement, on target for completion in Q1 2025.
LTT & ISIF (Irish Strategic Investment Fund) have embarked on joint venture of €80m to deliver One Opera Square, which is the largest direct commitment by ISIF to date under its €500m investment programme for five regional cities – Cork, Galway, Kilkenny, Limerick and Waterford – announced in June 2022 . The programme is a cornerstone of ISIF’s new investment strategy that will result in major investment being targeted to each city in the form of new places to work, places to live and enabling investments resulting in the regeneration of regional city centres.
A transformational project for Limerick, the fully developed site will be capable of employing up to 3,000 people across a 450,000 sq ft campus accommodation. Sustainability will be at the heart of Opera Square’s design and build, with the project developed to international best practice. One Opera Square will become the first ‘Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum certified office building outside of Dublin and Four Opera Square will follow suit. The developments will also be constructed to meet Well Platinum and WiredScore Platinum certification.
A day-time employment hub, it will transform into a bustling night-time destination complete with restaurants, bars and open entertainment spaces.
The design will also be entirely complementary to and protect existing important Georgian architecture.
Opera Square will not just be a modern cutting-edge development for leading national and international companies and organisations, it will be transformational for Limerick city, deliver significant employment opportunities and act as a catalyst for other major city centre investment to follow.
One Opera Square is an exceptional 121,029 sq. ft. office building within the Opera Square development in Ireland’s most future focused city. One Opera Sq. is targeting internationally recognised certification of LEED platinum and WELL platinum making it one of the most sustainable workspaces in the world. This building is also EU Taxonomy compliant.
One Opera Square is on target for completion April 2025.
