Re: Re: well what about the developments popping up in the shannonside ?

The aerial photography also illustrates the brutality of Healy Partners office and retail development at 103/4 O Connell Street. This lump of a building smashes straight through what was a fine uniform Georgian terrace. Limerick City Council initially refused to allow the demolition of the two Georgian structures however something obviously changed, maybe they fell down “accidentally” during construction. The sheer bulk of the side elevation facing Lower Cecil Street is absolutely ridiculous, especially considering the low-rise character of this portion of the street. No doubt this elevation is caked in beautiful sandstone cladding just like the front.:rolleyes:
