The development of what would be Ireland's tallest building has been delayed after planners in Cork City Council sought further clarification on the planned 34-storey building. Tower Development Properties are proposing a 140-metre hotel building at Custom House Quay, on the former Port of Cork site. "These concerns were fully addressed in our previous response to a request for further information from Cork City Council. "Occupancy numbers are the subject of interpretation and final internal layouts with full fixed services will have a great effect on occupancy numbers. "The fire certificate will thoroughly address occupancy numbers, means of escape and full fire protection of the building and its occupants."
