Google reportedly interested in buying Boland’s Mill buildings in Dublin

It’s reported that Google is one of several parties interested in buying the Boland’s Mill buildings in Dublin.

A bidding war is erupting over the historic site.

Several parties have expressed interest in the historic site near Grand Canal Dock.

One of those is thought to be Google – whose European headquarters is already located in that area.

It’s reported in today’s Sunday Business Post that the buildings would fetch around 11 million euro – but any buyer would have to spend a further 10 million to refurbish the site.

The Boland’s Mills regeneration project is part of NAMA’s flagship Boland’s Quay project – which also includes a major development of new office buildings.

When that is completed, it’ll hold up to 2,500 workers in its thirteen floors.

Those buildings are set to be completed by 2018 – creating up to 500 jobs in the process.
