Hadn’t checked in since I got the letter about the permission, the 18 conditions are the usual run of the mill sort of thing you’d get with any large development.

I think you’re right Dan, they know the history of the previous application where the demolition of the Ellen Street buildings was appealed and subsequently overturned. Also with the length of time its currently taking ABP to sort out its workload, they’ll probably be in a position to ride out the current economic difficulties!

All this of course means we’re going to be left with an ever worsening eyesore for a good while yet!:o:mad:
