The building is the first of several new office blocks due to come on stream in Sandyford over the next few months. The building is being developed by P Elliott and Co of Cavan on conjunction with a private consortium. It is understood that Irish Life is buying the building for around £13 million.

The letting was handled by Gunne; DTZ Sherry Fitzgerald advised Aircell and Lisney acted for Irish Life.
