Planning consultants are now being sought to assist the development, which could see a number of commercial, residential and educational units brought to the area. The procurement process is also looking to find an Architect led Design Team and Project & Cost Management at this stage.
This 10-acre site is located on the northern bank of the river Shannon in Limerick city centre, and forms part of Limerick Twenty Thirty's programme of transforming disused strategic sites in the city.
Limerick Twenty Thirty Strategic Development DAC (LTT) is tasked with delivering a visionary development at the historical site, which has significant socio-economic potential for Limerick and the wider Mid-West region.

LTT CEO David Conway said: "We have completed the Gardens International project, which is already an award winning development and the Opera Site development is currently at planning. Cleeves is the next major project and this week we have set about getting a team in place to bring this to the next stage by commencing the procurement process.
"Cleeves has enormous potential to become another key stimulant for Limerick and wider Mid-West region. The former industrial site has great historical significance and has some tremendous architectural features also to work off. In terms of scale, this will be one of the biggest city centre developments outside of Dublin. We have set a high standard with Gardens International so Cleeves will be an exciting project to work on."
This is the first stage of a two-phase Restricted Public Procedure, with a closing date of 31 July 2019. Stage 2 will involve inviting successful shortlisted candidates to submit tenders for the respective appointments.
