At the end of March 2026, our slipform rig topped out at level 25, reaching a height of 85.5 metres, making it officially the tallest building on the entire island of Ireland. With the completion of the lift and stair core of the main tower, the structure is now taller than Obel Tower in Belfast as well as College Square in Dublin.
Most notably, this height was reached in just over 10 days of continuous pouring (over 1,700m3), with Ireland’s tallest tower crane from Liebherr working furiously to lift the 225 tonnes of reinforcing steel ever higher, day and night. The 24/7 operation was successfully completed to schedule and to the highest standards of both safety and quality. We’d especially like to thank Roadstone Ltd. For their crucial partnership in maintaining a constant supply of fresh concrete, which was instrumental in the project’s success.
Once again, our crew delivered exceptional results, exceeding expectations across safety, quality, and efficiency. This achievement reflects not only the expertise of our site team, but also the strength of our pre-planning, scheduling, and design input.
With the completion of this Slipform, the scale and ambition of the development is nowapparent. A big thank you to everyone who delivered this milestone together with us.
