Re: Re: who are the National Conservation and Heritage Group

Yes old enough to remember the 80’s, developers have indeed been greedy building land banks but would you not have done the same?

A functioning city is more important than one with just views, land use is the future and maximising areas around metro and interconnector are essential, if that means high buildings so be it but the conservationists are just as likely to object to 7/ 8 stories.

Compare Londons underground and its high buildings with the functioning of the city to Dublin -new tread needed i fear, London underground functions well but does not always lead to the best layout of the city above ground.

We will see what Dunne is made of now that market has cooled, sprawl and guff indeed as building in greystones also, but ballsbridge is only 30 mins walk to city centre

Off you go to wicklow town this weekend to see how the 30 something generation live, 30 yrs old and 30 mile commute each way !
