Full coverage: Harry Crosbie

Point Village Development argued Dunnes effectively ignored the requirement to fit out an entire anchor unit and instead only fitted out a “small convenience store” occupying "half the size of the penalty box" on a soccer pitch.

HITC has initiated summary proceedings against docklands developer Harry Crosbie in connection with a proposed boutique hotel at Vicar Street. Planning permission was granted in 2019 but the site is currently undeveloped and up for sale.

Since its creation the Point Village development has caused nothing but contention for the developers and Dunnes Stores, which was meant to be the anchor tenant in the retail centre. The latest chapter in an ongoing dispute, which is lasting over a decade, is centred around a sign-off payment of €3 million.
