The project will see a block spanning from Eglinton Street to William Street opened up for development, incorporating a new post office and civic arts centre.

The location was used as a temporary creative space during the 2019 Galway International Arts Festival.

Junior Minister and Galway West TD Hildegarde Naughten says the project will regenerate a very prominent part of Galway City and provide a "world-class" arts space for the community.

She also adds that a modernised post office is also an extremely positive development at a time when services like community banking are of increasing importance.
