    Brief

    Cork City Council is undertaking a major construction and development project to convert the historic Counting House complex (approximately 8,000 square metres) located within the former Beamish and Crawford brewery site into a new city library. This project will replace the existing Grand Parade library with a modern, world-class facility designed to serve as a landmark civic, cultural, and educational destination. The library will integrate heritage, culture, education, technology, and innovation into a flagship institution for Cork City. The project encompasses building renovation, construction work, and infrastructure development to create a future-focused public facility. Cork City Council is actively seeking strategic partners and collaborators across multiple sectors including culture, education, technology, AI, tourism, and community engagement to deliver this transformative civic beacon that supports learning, creativity, business development, and public life in Cork's city centre. Suppliers and contractors should note that this is a significant heritage-sensitive construction project requiring expertise in historic building preservation and adaptation to contemporary standards and sustainable design principles.
