Description
The project involved the restoration and redevelopment of a listed Georgian property, originally built in the 1800s. As part of the renovation, an existing element of the building was demolished, while ensuring the retention of key historical features such as the front façade and internal staircase, in compliance with the preservation order. Situated on Main Street in Athlone, traffic management systems were implemented, including hoarding and cordoning off the site, to allow safe pedestrian access along the footpath. The works also included all associated drainage and site works. The redevelopment focused on creating 5,000 square feet of shopping floor space, which was fully fitted out to turnkey specifications. This comprehensive fitout included mechanical and electrical systems, line plastering internal joinery, and high quality floor finishes, ensuring a modern, functional space while respecting the building's historic significance.
