Brookfield Heights is a great example of partnership in action – delivered by Co-operative Housing Ireland in partnership with Dublin City Council, the Department of Housing, Housing Finance Agency and Kavco Group.

“The project demonstrates what can be achieved through partnership between Co-operative Housing Ireland, Dublin City Council, and development partners – each contributing to the creation of lasting, inclusive communities,” said Eoin Carroll, Director of Corporate Services at Co-operative Housing Ireland speaking at the launch.

David McCourt, Director of Asset Management and Property Services at Co-operative Housing Ireland, said: “These homes meet the highest sustainability and design standards. Our focus is on quality construction that delivers long-term value for Member Tenants and the environment, while keeping running costs low. Developments like Brookfield Heights show how smart design, location and partnership can deliver real, lasting impact. It’s not just about the bricks and mortar. When we deliver homes that are efficient, well-connected and built to last, we’re strengthening communities for the future.”

In an area where private rents remain among the highest in Dublin, Brookfield Heights provides affordable, energy-efficient homes for people who work and live in the city. So far this year, Co-operative Housing Ireland has delivered more close to 500 new homes across Ireland, with further developments underway in Dublin, Louth, and Cork.
