Past Experience

The development includes a shopping centre, office campus, town centre and over 800 residential units. The design integrates the new development into the existing town along its main street and provides strong visual and physical connections with Ballincollig.  The entire scheme was master planned and developed by members of the O’Flynn Group management team. Ballincollig Town Centre provides a vibrant, attractive streetscape with an open space environment where people want to live and work.

At 71 metres the Elysian is Ireland’s tallest building. The development comprises 211 residential units uniquely situated in a key city centre location, providing an exceptional quality of product in the tranquil living environment of the central garden square. The scheme also provides for a mix of office and retail space. All aspects of the scheme were master planned and developed by members of the O’Flynn Group management team. This is an example where the team utilised their local knowledge and were ahead of the market in identifying an opportunity for development in an area in Cork which is now considered the pivotal gateway link between the city centre and the Cork docklands area.

This development comprises 10,219m2 office space which is now fully let/sold to local occupiers. The property is located in Cork’s new docklands development on Lapps Quay adjacent to South Mall and Parnell Place and directly across from the City Hall.

The development comprises 900 residential units in a range of product types from 2 and 3 bed village houses, detached houses, semi-detached houses, duplexes and apartments developed around a well-designed and landscaped environment. The development also benefits from a village centre providing residents with a mix of retail and ancillary services on their doorstep.

Eastgate is strategically located adjacent to the main interchange of the M8 Cork/Dublin road, on the N25 Cork/ Waterford road. The Eastgate development comprises 1,000,000 sq ft of space including the Business Park, Retail Warehouse, Village Centre and Automall.

This 4 acres site has a prominent position adjacent to Edinburgh’s Haymarket station. This project is structured as an innovative joint venture with a major construction partner. It is an example of how the team achieved best value through de-risking the development and leveraging its special knowledge of the site and its development expertise.

The property comprised a 19 unit retail courtyard development including a supermarket and 104 parking spaces. It was acquired by Tiger in July 2004. At the time while it was a strong income producing mixed use scheme, the team created a detailed business plan and strategy to optimise development potential from the property and increase cash flow. It identified the potential to significantly improve the cashflow, through enhancing rents at review, surrendering and renegotiating leases and negotiating new leases. The property was also partially refurbished and additional units created to further improve the income stream.  Income stream increased from £400,000 to £630,000 per annum through the teams asset management work. The property was sold in extremely difficult market conditions at a premium price significantly above the purchase cost.

It was originally acquired as a development site with a JV partner and the team raised the necessary development and investment finance to fund the project.  This is an example of where members of the team managed the development phase and operationally asset managed the completed student accommodation.

The development comprises seven blocks of 3-7 storeys built on a platform partly over Newcastle Metro line, which in itself had its own design related challenges. Some of the team members managed the development phase and operationally asset managed the completed student accommodation.

The scheme provides en-suite rooms in a development arranged over 4 to 9 storeys. The scheme delivers 371 en-suite bedrooms set out in a ‘cluster’ apartment style with clusters of 4 – 5 bedrooms sharing a lounge / kitchen and 65 studio apartments with their own en-suite and kitchen facilities and common room / social space. The GIA of the building is 120,344 sq ft. Members of the team secured the planning permission, procured the construction through a design and build contract and operationally managed the completed trading asset.

The asset is arranged over 3 to 5 storey’s providing 384 en-suite bedrooms set out in a ‘cluster’ apartment style. The clusters of 4 or 5 bedrooms share a lounge / kitchen. In addition there is 21 studio apartments, which have their own cooking facilities. The GIA of the building is 112,056 sq ft. Members of the team secured the planning permission, procured the construction through a design and build contract and operationally managed the completed trading asset.
