Paid for by a hatfull of winners at the Galway races!!!!

But seriously, 38m is not a lot of money for an six lane and two pavement bridge, remembering the width of the river at this point

To put things into context La Touche House the smallest of the original IFSC blocks sold 2 years ago for 60m it is about the size of a typical Modern Office block c4500-5000Square Metres

I think this situation is a standoff between the DDDA and DCC over who picks up the tab. I wonder how the purchasors of the Phase 1 Spencer Dock Apartments will react if it is shelved?

I mean Spencer Dock isn’t really on the Northside if the bridge exists !!!!!!!!!
