€30 million Redemptorist Dublin property for sale

The Redemptorist property on Orwell Road is for sale. This is its second time to come on the market. It's being valued at €30 million. One estimate is that 280 houses will be built on the site.

The large mass-concrete structure was built in the early 1970s.

At the time it was considered an eyesore. It still is, indeed, it is a blight on Orwell Road.

It has been pointed out to this writer that the provinical of the Redemptorists at the time of the construction was not a man competent or capable of overseeing such a project.

A story of our time.
