56-58 Dawson Street
Prime retail building
The building is one of Dublin’s most easily recognised bookstores, Waterstones Booksellers. It’s a prominent six-bay, four-storey commercial building with attic, constructed in 1902 to the designs of architect A.E. Murray. Designed in the neo-Flemish style, the property is one of Dublin's most recognisable retail buildings and forms an important part of the city's architectural heritage. The building is distinguished by its red-brick and terracotta façade, featuring richly moulded decorative detailing on the upper floors. At ground level, its distinctive shopfront incorporates large, round-cornered plate-glass display windows, creating a strong retail presence and contributing significantly to the character of the surrounding streetscape. The combination of historic architectural significance and prime city-centre retail use makes the property a notable commercial and heritage asset.

The Lumen Building
Extensively Refurbished High-End Offices
Gresham House Ireland Real Estate was instructed in January 2019 to appoint and manage a design and construction team to deliver a high-quality Grade A refurbished office building located in a high-profile position on Baggot Street, Dublin 4. The context of the instruction included a complete refurbishment of the commercial element made up of a 6 storey office building with ground floor retail and the introduction of a welfare facility in the basement of the scheme along with a new extension to the rear of the ground floor. Included in the refurbishment design was the introduction of solar panels which power all the hot water in the building, an improved BER rating from D to B.
In conjunction with the refurbishment project we were tasked with managing the leasing of the new space and this exercise included the appointment of letting agents and formulation of a marketing strategy including a rebranding of the building.
The property now known as The Lumen Building was successfully completed within budget in December 2019 and has since attracted strong tenant covenants. Successful asset management has ensured full occupancy and rental growth.
