New life for Central Park with bespoke concrete benching

Bespoke benching made from Cassidy Bros’ unique polished concrete has breathed fresh life into the landscape surrounding the magnificent Central Park in Dublin.

Owners Green Properties, architects Henry J. Lyons and contractor Peter O’Brien and Sons made plans to ‘lift the look’ of the grey granite exterior. They then approached our experienced team to make their plans a reality.

From the designs specified, our engineers crafted 236 linear metres of beautiful polished, white, exposed concrete plantar walls and benching with integrated hardwood timber seating made from FSC approved, air-dried Cumaru (also known as Brazilian Teak).

David Cassidy, Managing Director at Cassidy Bros, said: “Henry J Lyons and Peter O’Brien did a fantastic job on the design for the hard landscape. Their plans for new bespoke concrete installations really breathed new life into this great Dublin building.

“Our team crafted a finished product that creates a much more attractive look and feel to the location.

“Work began on the project in February 2019 and was completed in April 2019 to a very high standard, on time and within budget,” he added.
