Inspired by innovation. Driven by imagination.For centuries, Limerick has been an international trading hub. Over two hundred years ago, local entrepreneurial families developed deep, lasting and profitable connections with mainland Europe. Later, the first transatlantic air routes added to the city’s cosmopolitan character and enhanced its commercial reputation.
Today, an exciting new initiative is drawing on this heritage. The Gardens International is an iconic office development that reimagines one of Limerick’s most historic and innovative buildings for the 21st century.
Two centuries ago, the brilliant and dynamic William Roche created the ‘Hanging Gardens’, a breathtaking set of tiered gardens between O’Connell Street and Henry Street.
Covering almost an acre and reaching 70 feet into the air, the brilliantly engineered Gardens grew exotic fruits, beautiful flowers and an extensive range of vegetables, on terraces over huge vaulted storehouses.
The ‘Hanging Gardens’ are long gone. But the architecture and vision that supported them has survived. And this is now being incorporated into the fabric of The Gardens International. Taking inspiration from Roche’s vision - and honouring Limerick’s international entrepreneurial heritage - The Gardens International will ensure that a site that once astonished local and international visitors will once again be associated with innovation, ambition and imagination.
A visionary past.
A vibrant future.
The Combination Of Dynamic Contemporary Architecture And Old Heritage Buildings

Limerick will again be graced by the beauty of nature where William Roche’s hanging gardens once flourished

Just 20 minutes from Shannon International Airport which offers full US customs pre-clearance and direct flights to Britain and mainland Europe, Limerick is one of Ireland’s best-connected cities.
It is equally well served by sea. Taking advantage of some of the world’s deepest and most sheltered harbours, Shannon Foynes Port Company (SFPC) is transforming the Shannon estuary into an international economic hub.
The city itself is also investing in its future. As part of a plan to transform Limerick into a major economic force in the Irish and European stage, €1bn is now being committed to generate 12,000 new jobs.
Unsurprisingly, Limerick’s energy and commitment to development attracts dynamic new businesses across many sectors. These include medical, IT, electronics and financial services, while nine of the world’s top 10 pharmaceutical companies are located within two hours drive.
Decades of development have transformed Limerick

nsToday, successful business locations are judged on three key criteria: their educational facilities and standards, their housing and office capacity, their availability of talent and their quality of life. Across all four areas, Limerick scores highly:
Three of Ireland’s most respected third level academic institutions are located in Limerick: University of Limerick (UL), Limerick Institute of Technology (LIT) and Mary Immaculate College (MIC).
Each year, 6,000 people graduate in IT, Life Sciences, Business Administration, Engineering, Technology and other disciplines.
62% of Limerick’s 30-34 year olds have completed 3rd level education - a percentage that significantly exceeds the European average.
On average, Limerick’s housing costs are 30% less than the national average.
In a recent survey of 367 cities, Limerick was named the most affordable place to buy a home1.
In 2016, an average four-bedroom semi-detached house in Limerick cost €197,000 – less than half the price of a similar house in Dublin.
1 13th Annual Demographia International Housing Affordability Survey 2017 [Year TBC]
The Mid-West attracts highly educated professionals; 96% have a third level qualification.
‘Limerick for IT’ and ‘Limerick for Engineering’ are two programmes established in recent years between the city’s third level institutions to develop the quality and quantity of IT and Engineering talent within the region.
Limerick is affordable. The city has the highest level of disposable income per capita outside of the greater Dublin region. This, combined with lower living costs. make Limerick a very cost-effective place to live.
Commuting times are short. For two-thirds of the working population, the commute is less than thirty minutes.
