Plans have been submitted for a €12m development which includes a leisure centre and restaurant at the Sacred Heart Church in the Crescent. The former church was bought from the Jesuit Order in March 2006 by Galway-based businessman John O'Dolan, at a reported cost of €4m.John Kennedy of Elliot Design, who Mr O'Dolan contracted to draft plans for the building, said that proposals have been submitted to Limerick City Council for the installation of a leisure centre in the building.The proposed centre consists of a 20 metre swimming pool, a spa located in the basement, a 15,000 sq ft gym and a restaurant adjacent to the facility.
