Re: Re: Look at de state of Cork, like!

Well like I said, this image does not justify the building whatsoever – I don’t know how, but they managed to create a model and image that even made me go ‘Dear God!’, I had been bracing myself, but since the scaffolding was removed off Phase 1, I was pleasantly surprised. It’s a funny fish alright – and going by the image, I would agree with you – but that’s all I have for the time being. I may attain some first-hand photos soon, see how you feel then.

Below is an image of 1 of a number of other alternate proposals for the same site – as proposed by many other developers and previous owners. This ugly and boring design is by Reddy O’Riordan Staehli, the CG Image is quite old, given that all the surrounding buildings have been redeveloped or reconstructed.

Given the choice…well…
