Irish Independent - Harcourt Developments, the company best known for developing the Titanic Quarter in Belfast, has reached the final hurdle of its sales campaign at its Citywest estate, Cúil Dúin.
Harcourt was among a number of developers that co-funded a 4.2km-extension of the red Luas line to the Citywest Business Campus during the boom in the hope of attracting more employers and house-buyers to the area.
