Re: Re: Heuston Station granted permission

Is Dublin going to go a similar way to London, with its random dispersal of medium to high rise buildings around the city and suburbs?* I suppose it is a very difficult one in that we have no real experience of building high so the natural reaction might be scepticism. Also, it is hard to select sites in that areas free from a higher density of develpment might be deemed unsuitable because there is no precedence in the area for High-Rise, whilst in city centre locations there are issues relating to the established community and the historic fabric of the city.

*Apart from Canary Wharf, which is basically a citidel separated from the rest of the city.
