Pug – not quite sure what building you are talking about there. Is it the former Mill building to the rear of the Bank of Ireland on the right as you go across Parliament Bridge? Or the corner building turning left onto South Mall and heading west toward Grand Parade??? THAT corner building isn’t seeing much action at the present but is scheduled for a refurbishment. The former Mill building is owned by Tumblegate Ltd (Tom McCarthy of Jacobs on the Mall Restaurant/Kingsley/McDev fame) – and was scheduled to commence a long-delayed redevelopment at the beginning of this year – contrators have switched from Joseph Lane & Son Ltd to O’Flynn of Banteer, however, still no progress seems to have being made – even after a promise to the City Manager and a number of structural reinforcements. Murray O’Laoire are the architects for what, some day, will become an extended restaurant at ground-floor (Jacobs), some retail, parking and over-head apartments.
