Re: Re: Developments in Cork

Speculation is rife that the Mercy Hospital and the South Infirmary Hospital are to merge on a new site. A planned press conference at lunchtime in the City should shed some light on the subject. Three sites mooted as the new hospital location are:
Blarney
Sarsfield Court
Docklands.

A number of rumours link Howard Holdings with the docklands site.
Whoever does the deal will obtain two massive ciy centre hospital sites for future mixed use development (although both with serious restrictions due to heritage matters).
