Foreland analysis

Illustrative example. The records below are representative fixtures modelled on real Irish planning data — they are not live register entries. Run the analysis on your own site to work against the live record.

4-storey apartment scheme, ~40 units, 0.4 ha infill site · Drumcondra, Dublin 9 · Dublin City Council · searched 800 m around the site · 8 records examined

  • Four storeys has repeatedly been accepted on main-road sites

    Three comparable schemes of 24–44 units at four storeys were granted between 2021 and 2023 on similar infill sites fronting main roads. The proposed height and density sit inside the recently permitted range rather than testing it.

  • Reduced car parking has precedent near the bus corridor

    A 2022 grant accepted 0.4 spaces per unit specifically citing proximity to a quality bus corridor. If the site has comparable access, full-standard parking may not be required — a material viability lever on a 0.4 ha plot.
