Does anyone know what’s going on at the william o brien site on bandon road? there’s been groundwork going on there for the last few weeks, are there any intentions of developing this site for commercial/retail purposes? I do remember hearing about ward anderson’s plans for a cinema there a few years back, but havent heard anything since. Further out the road there seems to be a large development in the works also, any info?What about the dockyard in passage west, i saw drawings for quite an attractive apartment scheme a few years back, coupled with marina i think, i havent heard anything though since, and there has been no activity down that way that i know of. quite a pity actually, it was aesthetically refreshing, and would have served a major improvement to the towns streetscape, aswell as an interesting feature on entering the upper harbour for boats.was this proposal turned down?for what reasons?any info appreciated

Passage West…. Couldn’t be built because of the Fertilizer plant across the way( danger of exploding) But since IFI has closed maybe we’ll see it again.
