Reply To: Has anyone a picture of the George’s Quay tower?

I take the point about the need for more distinction on the Dublin skyline. I certainly agree with Blain about the numbing awfulness of the 5-storey box syndrome, and with others in this thread about the idiocy of lopping a few floors off tall building proposals just for the sake of it.

I’m glad the banal SOM scheme here was not built, but then that let in this project (which is older, isn’t it?). I suppose my dislike of the George’s Quay buildings is that they seem to be in a 1980s sub-Cesar Pelli timewarp. Not absolutely awful, but not quite the real thing, and not quite 21st century either.
