Capital Dock is a 22-storey mixed-use development at the junction of Sir John Rogerson's Quay and Britain Quay in the Dublin docklands. Developed by Kennedy Wilson, the site was acquired in 2012 and construction finished in 2018. Upon completion, the 79-metre tower became the tallest storeyed building in the Republic of Ireland, and the third tallest on the island of Ireland.
History
The building was developed in a joint venture with the National Asset Management Agency (NAMA) on the site of the proposed U2 Tower.{{cite web|url = https://www.thejournal.ie/the-watchtower-dublin-harry-crosbie-2-3746757-Dec2017/ | publisher = The Journal | newspaper = TheJournal.ie | title = Whatever happened to... a 40-storey skyscraper in Dublin's docks? | date = 31 December 2017 | accessdate = 16 November 2019 }} Concrete foundations, as well as three floors below street level and one above level, had been completed on the original development before it was cancelled.{{citation needed|date=August 2019}}
In 2012, Kennedy Wilson acquired the site and development started at the end of 2014.
