This Dublin office building has sold for €51 million

It was completed in 2007 and has 57,700 square feet of offices over six floors.

IRISH REAL ESTATE trust Hibernia has bought an office building in Dublin’s docklands for over €50 million.

The Central Quay building was one of two put up for sale in September by private equity firm Blackstone, which bought them from Nama.

The building sold to Hibernia for €51.3 million.

It was completed in 2007 and has 57,700 square feet of offices over six floors with 26 car parking spaces.

It is currently 88% occupied and let to three tenants – AWAS Aviation Acquisitions, Indeed Ireland and Invesco Global Asset Management.

Hibernia CEO Kevin Nowlan said that the office presented an opportunity for his business.

“With some vacant space and upcoming lease expiries, there is an opportunity for us to increase the yield on the cost to above 5.5% in the next 12 months and to above 6% in due course.”

    Friday’s answer = 11

    Why?

    The written numbers are the number of digital lines making up the preceding number.

    I got it by chance. I saw the difference between the pairs of digital numbers was 6, 6, 12, 12. I thought then the penned in numbers had a similar pattern 7, 9, 9, 11. I thought there must be another 11 then. The real reason makes more sense but it’s funny how this worked out.

    Maybe yours is the real reason and mine is by chance.

    Geez, no explanation for Friday’s answer which wasn’t a maths puzzle and no clarification for Tuesday’s mess up either, ending with a whimper.

    Tuesday’s was OK – the absence of explanation was unfortunate.
    Half the children had a dog – so their can’t be 25 or 27 children, other wise you have half a dog!
    So there were either 15 or 26 Dogs
    But there were 3 times as many dogs as cats – so which of 15 & 26 is divisible by 3?
    OK
    15 dogs, 5 cats, 8 goldfish & 2 hamsters – 30 pets – and also 30 children.

    It wanted number of pets not number of students. 24 students would have 25 pets between them and 30 students would have 30 pets between them. The only conditions are that total #students must be divisible by 6 and that total #pets must be divisible by 5.

    Tuesdays answer could have been 25 also. 12 dogs, 4 cats, 7 goldfish & 2 hamsters equal 25.

    With the way the question was phrased both 25 and 30 are possible answers.

    The answer is dependant on the assumption that each child only has one pet. It may seem trivial but saying that half the children have dogs doesn’t help at all without that knowledge. It should have just said half the pets are dogs or made it clear that each child had only one pet.

    Ok – I see how that could be possible if you allow for a pupil having two pets.
    A bit of a contrived gripe in my view.

    Not really contrived in my opinion. That caught me up as well until I said fe<k it and just made the assumption. I wrote it in my copy book and everything. Really should have stated it in the question.

    I thought the teeth brushing one was poorly worded. I got the “correct” answer if I based the time on 50 mins ie subtracting the rinsing time.

    72 is the right answer if you’re looking at the big numbers.
    But the next number will be one of the faint numbers.
    I think it’s 11.
    If you loop the faint numbers, skipping one number each time, you get 11.
    The 7 goes with the second 9
    And the first 9 goes with the first 11
    So the next loop would make it 7 to 9 to 11. The loops are overlapping
