Re: Re: gaiety centre

Yes, but if it had ‘copied’ the Gaiety that would have seemed too much like context or even been denounced by the modernistas as ‘pastiche’ (the ultimate shibboleth). Of course it will look ‘corporatey’; the ultimate intention of this development is too generate income, not contribute to townscape, and glass cladding is just flavour of the month. But it will reflect – ahem – the Stephens Green Centre. We can all look forward (or should it be backwards?) to that.
