Monaghan County Council have signed the contract for the Newbliss Enterprise and Digital Hub project this week.
This €2.7 million Project is funded through Minister Heather Humpreys’ Department of Rural and Community Development’s Rural Regeneration and Development Fund.
Match funding has being provided by Monaghan County Council.
The local Minister says the ‘Hub’ will act as a key driver for the sustainable regeneration of Newbliss Village.
Following a public procurement process, Monaghan County Council awarded the contract to Lowry Construction Limited.
Architects Hall Black Douglas has completed the detailed design which will see the former Courthouse in Newbliss converted to a remote working, enterprise and digital hub.
The ‘Hub’ which will be managed and operated by Enterprising Monaghan will see the listed building consist of rentable desks for students and remote workers, meeting rooms, a canteen and offices of variable sizes.
