There are calls for the Land Development Agency to redevelop the old Ballymun shopping centre site in north Dublin.
The 50-year-old building was demolished in 2021, with the city council last year seeking bids to develop the land for retail and housing.
Fianna Fáil TD Paul McAuliffe says the LDA should take a role in progressing the plot.
The former Dublin Lord Mayor says having an empty site on a Main Street in the capital during a housing crisis isn't good enough.
