Thumbs up for Opera Centre (Limerick Post)

So I guess this means we’ve finally reached the end of this (at times) torturous process! Its hard to believe when you look back that it was the summer of 2005 when rumours of a potentially major development in the Patrick Street area first materialised. At that time there was a lot of scepticism about the project, this turned out to be well founded.

The revised Opera Centre is a much more balanced development than it was in its previous (flawed) form. I think everybody’s fairly happy with the final outcome,The Refurbishment of Quinns Pub and the construction of a new Cafe/Bar at Bank Place are positive developments, Limerick also gets more badly needed retailing space ( estimates vary from 25,000 to 32,000 sq metres!) and significant georgian buildings are saved from demolision.

All in all, not a bad result!:)
