Union Investment will fund the development of the largest new speculative prime office building in Dublin.

The Burlington House site in Dublin 4 sold for over €40 million last June. It was acquired by Development Securities in a joint venture with companies affiliated with Patrick McKillen, John Ronan and Colony Capital.

A 1970s-era office building occupied the site previously but was demolished and cleared for development.

Construction on the building, which will contain 15,992 sq m (172,000 s ft.) of office space, is expected to begin shortly and finish in the first half of 2017. Sisk Group has been appointed as the main contractor.
