Public Consultation: Drogheda THRIVE

Louth County Council, in partnership with Shaffrey Architects, have developed an ambitious heritage-led regeneration plan for Westgate House and the former Drogheda Youth Development building at West Street, Drogheda.

The council, following public consultation, will also provide information on an Integrated Urban Strategy for the West Street Area, which provides a pipeline of potential projects within this area.

Members of the public are invited to participate in a public consultation about the proposed project and potential funding under the Town Centre First Heritage Revival Scheme (THRIVE) for the centre of Drogheda.

A drop-in consultation event will take place on Thursday, 10th April between 4pm-7pm at the Louth County Council Drogheda Civic Offices, Fair St, Drogheda, where members of the public can meet members of the design team.

THRIVE is co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union through the ERDF Southern, Eastern & Midland Regional Programme 2021-27 and aims to allow local authorities and citizens to reimagine and revitalise town centres through the renovation and reuse of publicly owned vacant or derelict heritage buildings.

Louth County Council is eager to hear from groups or individuals with proposals or future intended uses in this area.
