  • The team at Property District were delighted to support the Irish Construction Industry Awards this week, it was a great event! The level of skill and innovation on display from all the shortlisted companies was truly world-class, showcasing some of the most forward-thinking projects our industry has to offer. Seeing the variety of projects and the calibre of entries was a testament to the incredible work being done in Ireland’s construction industry. Huge congratulations to all the shortlisted firms for setting such a high standard and to the winners, whose projects have helped to raise the bar for excellence. We are so proud of our industry’s visionaries and creators, the planners and the builders – your work is shaping our skylines and communities for the better.

(Apologies in advance for any typos, it’s difficult to get good help on a Sunday. Also, I use voice to text dictation so just sound out anything that really doesn’t make sense in a strong rural accent and that should help!)
