Lioncor on course to deliver new European Parliament office in Dublin

Lioncor Developments recently hosted the “topping-out” ceremony at Chatham House, the European Parliament’s new liaison office on Chatham Street in Dublin city centre. The building is due to be completed by main contractors Flynn in the final quarter of this year, with the EU taking occupancy in early 2024.

The new House of Europe will comprise 3,065 sq m (33,000 sq ft) of office accommodation containing the Europa Experience, an interactive multi-media exhibition and gallery area, which will offer visitors a direct insight into how the European Parliament operates.

The interactive experience will include multimedia stations and a 360-degree cinema at basement level which will allow visitors to participate in a plenary session of the parliament or take part in a role-play game as a member of the European Parliament or as an EU commissioner.

All visits to the Europa Experience will be free of charge and available in all 24 official European Union languages, including Irish.
