Reply To: Moore St

I agree, but sometimes it does seem like there are “luddites” out there who seem completely unaware of the reality of a location and knee jerk react to any proposals. Take a look at Cork City where for the past ten years many proposed developments get objected to almost out of spite. Some people would prefer dilapidated decay over something new – because everything new is “ugly”. And these areas are not historical at all with no architectural features. These people are simply closing their eyes to the ruined state the place is in and don’t seem to mind the fact that these spaces get built out in the suburbs in a lovely LA style suburban mess.

Obviously Moore St isn’t this case. I was just asking the question as part of the discussion.
