IPUT Real Estate (‘IPUT’), Dublin’s leading property investment company, has published the third annual report in its five-year ‘Making Impact’ social impact study. This innovative project is one of the world’s first ever studies to value the impact of placemaking on a city neighbourhood over a long-term time horizon. The research is being undertaken in partnership with three international placemaking and design agencies – Gehl, Occasio and PRD – to evaluate the social, cultural, economic, and environmental impacts of placemaking at IPUT’s Wilton Park development in Dublin 2.
Wilton Park is a 600,000 sq ft mixed used scheme that incorporates 580,000 sq ft of offices and 20,000 sq ft of food & beverage space surrounding a one-acre city park and a new streetscape. The development is home to leading global occupiers LinkedIn and Stripe and will welcome EY in 2026.
