😮 I agree that the photo of Jurys is manipulated, but Victoria Mills out of date? maybe you are right..VM was out of date the day the plans were drawn up.
What is that dogbox like structure in the Shandon photo?, i thought that was manipulated as well until i passed there today and saw it for myself. Any wonder planning in Cork had a bad reputation?

Thats Coppinger Court by Magee Creedon. Personally I think it is one of the better designed projects to have met the city in recent years. Quite rightly it picked up an RIAI award for best sustainable building. It may be worth taking a looking around, if you can, the development before judging it. Its a great playful and sensitive design given its difficult location. http://www.riai.ie/gallery.html?type=regional&year=2004&item=6
