      An observation tower at the top of one of the towers would spoil the undeniably elegant lines of the chimneys, to say nothing of how unfeasible it surely must be to install a 200m elevator! Ditto the sky bridge? Can we not just pay for their upkeep, clean them and leave them be? Dubliners have derived great satisfaction from the chimneys for 40 years now without any bells or whistles. The surrounding docklands will be redeveloped before too long. Demolish the surrounding power station and leave the tip of the southside docks as a beautiful new park in the geographic heart of Dublin’s sprawl. The chimneys will still need a little bit of “splendid isolation” for maximum effect.
