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

Beautiful picture of Cannocks, Tuborg. Where did you get it? I have a vague memory of Cannocks. It must have been knocked 20 or 25 years ago. It was a department store, I think, but my memory of it is very hazy. I think it was less “up-market” than the other nearby dempartment store, Todd’s (now BT), across the road. I don’t ever remember seeing the building to the right of Cannocks. I think that was a derelict/empty site for years. It’s also a great shame to be reminded of what was there before the Author’s Quay development. I remember that building too; I think it was occupied by a big jeweler. That whole stretch of Limerick has been destroyed in the last 30 years. Cannock’s is gone, most of the Georgians where Author’s Quay is were knocked as was Cruises Hotel.
