# Spaces Horgan's Quay

Horgan's Quay is the part of Cork where the city's industrial past meets its plans for the future. The scheme sits on the northern docks beside the River Lee, and the operator describes it as a development worth around 160 million euro that combines offices with a hotel, apartments, shops, restaurants, a crèche and a food market. The offices are built around an original limestone warehouse, so the stone from the quayside era is still part of the building, now alongside new floors and glass. Spaces Horgan's Quay occupies three floors of that composition, and the operator points to views over the river from the upper levels.

Spaces is the Regus group's brand for businesses that prefer a community to a corridor of doors. At Horgan's Quay that means a business lounge, private offices, shared offices and meeting rooms across the floors, plus a coffee point and a team that looks after visitors. The listing for the centre names a lounge area, and the operator adds that Wi-Fi is fast and the staff are on hand. The result is a place for networking as much as for desks, which suits founders and small teams who want to meet other companies without leaving the building.

Who is it for? Start-ups and scale-ups that want a Cork address with character. Consultants who split their week between clients and a base. Irish branches of foreign firms that want to look established without a long lease. And teams from larger companies in Dublin, London or the United States that move staff to Cork for projects and need desks for a quarter or a year. The mix of limestone and glass appeals to creative and technology firms in particular, and the on-site neighbours make it easy to take clients for lunch.

Cork also rewards a team that wants to recruit locally. The city has a university, a technology and pharmaceutical sector and a steady flow of graduates, and an office beside the main station makes interviews easy for candidates arriving from Cobh, Midleton or Mallow. A lounge-based centre such as this one is also a gentler first step for a new hire than an empty floor. The location is one of the strongest in Cork for public transport. The operator states that the development is right next to Cork Kent station, the city's main railway terminus, with services towards Dublin, Cobh and the commuter towns of the harbour. Bus stops are within walking distance, and the airport is reached by road. For anyone arriving from outside the city, the train is the obvious choice and puts the office beside the platform.

The neighbourhood is changing quickly. The northern docklands have been identified for new streets, housing and workplaces, and Horgan's Quay is one of the early pieces. That means a few construction sites nearby and a place that will keep developing, but also the chance to be part of an area that is still making its character. The operator also points to sights further out, including the Páirc Uí Chaoimh stadium and the Collins Barracks military museum, as options for an afternoon off.

A few practical questions are worth raising at a visit. Which floor is the best match for your team size? How are the shared offices and private offices priced and sized? What are the arrangements for meeting-room hire, post and visitors? Is a business address for registration part of the agreement? The operator answers each of these, and the terms differ between contracts.

If you would like to see the converted warehouse, compare it with Regus City Gate in Mahon or ask about a private office for your team, ask us for the details. We will pass the request to the operator and come back with a price and a date for a visit.
