With a 2,000 seat theatre, public car park, numerous restaurants, bars, cafes and the Martha Schwartz Concourse, as well as an excellent transport network, 2 Grand Canal Square is an unrivalled corporate destination.

With the majority of 2 Grand Canal Square occupied by one of Ireland’s leading solicitors, BCM Hanby Wallace, the available space extends to 6,166 sq.m. (66,370 sq.ft.) and is arranged over 5 floors.

2 Grand Canal Square occupies a prominent position overlooking Grand Canal Dock to the east and Macken Street to the west. Other nearby occupiers include William Fry, McCann Fitzgerald, O2, Beauchamps and the DDDA. The addition of these occupiers to the area as well as the opening of key transportation links such as the Samuel Beckett Bridge has copper-fastened its reputation for being the leading office location in Dublin City Centre.

Grand Canal Square lies at the hub of Dublin’s transportation network. With DArT, Luas, bus, road and rail lines all servicing the area, the development is ideal for any business with a commuting workforce. In addition, the Samuel Beckett Bridge will give instant commuter access between the north and South quays.

The building comes with a generous car parking ratio of 1 space per 175 sq.m. There are a further 150 spaces in the adjacent underground public car park. 2 Grand Canal Square is perfect for anyone driving to work, while those looking to utilise public transport have a wealth of options open to them. 2 Grand Canal Square also accommodates the cyclist with ample bicycle spaces and shower facilities.

Grand Canal Dock DArT and rail station is just 8 minutes away, while the proposed linking of the Luas Green Line (serving the south suburbs) and the Luas red Line (serving the western suburbs), along with the opening of the new C1 line (extending the service via Spencer Dock to the Point Village) will ensure that the Luas is also an excellent choice for staff and clients.

The future proposed railway line (known as The Interconnector Line) linking Heuston Station and Spencer Dock will have a very positive impact on anyone working in the Grand Canal Square development. The extensive bus services, which will include a quality bus corridor across the proposed Dodder Bridge, will complete the area’s convenient accessibility.

The 2,000 seat theatre and Martha Schwartz Concourse at Grand Canal Square act as a focal point for the bustling social scene which is thriving in the area.

A wide array of bars, cafes and restaurants afford plenty of opportunity for professionals to relax and entertain clients and staff. With names such as ely Hq at Hanover quay to The Ferryman at Sir John rogerson’s quay, you can be sure that every taste and occasion will be catered for.

The Lansdowne road Stadium, Shelbourne Park, The O2 and the Point Village are just some of the facilities close to 2 Grand Canal Square that are ideal for corporate and

staff entertainment. While shops, boutiques and shopping centres in close proximity to the development provide a very different, but equally important kind of recreation.

The area will also further benefit from the opening of the new national Convention Centre.
