Tenants and services
The centre is home to stores such as Primark, Dunnes Stores, H&M, Zara, River Island, SuperValu, Easons, Boots, Rituals and TK Maxx.[1] There is a range of car parks, a cinema and a post office, and there are several restaurants and cafes such as Five Guys, Subway, Abrakebabra, Chopped, Starbucks, Butlers Chocolate Café, Costa and Milano.
History
In 1996, a planning application was sent to Fingal County Council for a commercial complex to be built on a 20-acre site between the Main Street and the Swords by-pass road. Construction work was meant to start in the middle of 1997 with an opening in the autumn of 1998, however construction did not begin until 1999.[2] The Pavilions was eventually opened on the 15 May 2001, by then Taoiseach Bertie Ahern.
Expansion
In 2006, the Movies@Swords cinema opened. Additionally, in the same year, Phase 2 of the center was inaugurated, introducing retailers like Penneys. There are proposed plans for a Phase 3, situated at the front of the center, adjacent to the Swords metro stop on the R132. However, Phase 3 has been put on hold until further notice.[3]
In June 2018, plans for a €3.3 million development were announced which would reconfigure the first floor of Phase 2 to accommodate 3 new restaurant units where two of the units would be occupied by Five Guys and Milano. The development would also include a glass bridge that will link the first floor of the centre.[4]
