Re: Re: Dublin skyline

High rise (over 50m) will change the skyline so we must justify it – it should be in the right location and it should be a piece of art – (or perhaps in the opposite order?) otherwise what is the point?

For me, covering more of Leinster in unsustainable car-bound suburban semi-detached housing or building city centre apartment blocks which will be impossible to replace for hundreds of years should require far more justification than the building of a tall office building which will change the skyline. The former will be with us for 10 generations or more while the latter can be corrected within one.
