Re: Re: Arts Lives: Michael Scott

Bus Arse is an incredibly sick building that needs major work to bring its heating and ventilation up to any kind of acceptable standard. I have worked there on occasion and the Dept.SW employees absolutely hate it from a functional point of view. Thought it was interesting what his kids said about their own gaff being freezing cold. Something tells me Scott was a man not too bothered by letting practicalities get in the way of the grand vision. Having said that it should be lavished with a complete overhaul. I particularly like the blank gable facing the Custom House by the Dublin Bus stop and the use of the red Roman bricks (is that the right term for bricks of those proportions?) on Store st., I’ve never seen them used anywhere else in Dublin
