Reply To: trinity and nassau street

only the first bit of the pearse street plan got the go ahead, that is, building between luce hall (the stw box) and pearse street. the planners report emphasised the value of the listed buildings on the street, i don’t know what the implication of this for the rest of the pearse street plan.

the discussion of the nassau street frontage arises in the context of the so called 2nd development control plan, but is very vague since all this land is zoned open space by the dcc.

i had thought it would never be built on because a previous plan to build there had fallen through, but, it seems it is now felt that emphasing the quality of the building and leaving gaps between buildings allowing a view through to college park, would make it more likely that such a plan would be successful.
