    speaking of bridges, does anyone know what the book stalls on capel street bridge are going to look like, are there pictures? they are arriving for paddy’s day and they are being made in barcelona, that’s all i know and that’s because i read it in some article by shane o’toole

    Capel Street: Wasn’t there meant to be some sort of viewing platform element to this bridge? I am sure I read that somewhere.

    Should all look great when its up and running. I hope its a success. They could even extend the market onto the Boardwalk if it turns out..

    Bookstalls!! Lets hope they’re not as short lived as the coffee shops on the boardwalks!!

    Are the cafes gone? I remember them being popular last summer. If they are gone, are you sure it’s not just a seasonal thing?

    They seem to have changed hands a bit since they were opened. It may just be they were shut down for winter – lets face it its not exactly the nicest place to sit and have a coffee in mid January! What they really need to do is get someone in who can afford to keep it going for the winter. I remeber they were tendering out the coffee shop in the Hugh Lane Gallery, which is DCC run. Attaching a spring/summer franchise for the Boardwalk to the that lease might be a good idea.
    To be honest I dont think the Boardwalk will really come into its own until the traffic levels on the quays are significantly reduced.

    No, they closed. They were actually very sheltered, I used to have coffee at the one neear the Morrison every saturday morning last winter / spring. But they ran out of cash before it got to the summer. Sad.
