Anyone got anymore information other than that in todays papers about the corpo demolishing the old fish market?
Old pubs going one by one also the Iveagh gone, Daisy gone now the old fishmarket gone- Moore St just hanging in – yet we still have have Tesco’s and Superquinn to bring our foreign friends and tourists to Dublin to show them the last of our old Dublin markets !!
Read somewhere that the Corp (now City Council, but they can’t fool us) intends to develop the fruit markets into a retail centre. In short, having spent a ton of money on a stunning refurbishment of the markets building, they’re damned if they’re going to waste it on a bunch of wholesalers trying to get by.
I think they have a Covent Garden in mind – an example of how not to if you ask me.
I think that this is the coolest part of town, with plenty of mix and mingle, and to change it to a tourist ghetto crawling with buskers and jugglers a la Temple Bar would be a pity.
Is this true, and if so, any views?
