Reply To: The Spike

Congratulations to Dublin and Ireland on completing the Spire!
I have followed the discussion about a new monument on O’Connell Street since an idea was presented by Shane O’Tool and given a prize on the architectural Biennale in Cracow-Poland in 1989. And the final result, as we all can see now, is a strong and fine monument which Dublin and Ireland can be proud of! “Thank you” of course to Ian Ritchie Architects, London; but also a great “Thank you” to the Dublin City Architect, Jim Barrett for the job he and the Dublin City Council has done for the Spire.
May this day give inSpiration to further fine Urban Design in Dublin, Ireland and the rest of Europe!
