Reply To: Farewell the Ormond Hotel?

I hope that whatever replaces it is not goind to stick out like so many other eyesores in Dublin.

The better solution would have been to upgrade and retain the existing facade which blends nicely with the unremarkable buildings around it.

I don’t think the quays as a whole are a particularly strong point in Dublin’s architecture anyway.

If the Ormond’s replacement is some ultra-mod glass and steel structure, then it’s going to look totally out of place along there.

The City Council’s decisions on city development are terribly hit and miss 😡
