Tallest building I said…not spire! There are lots of structures (spires, masts, chimneys, etc.) in Ireland taller than the propsoed control tower but it would the tallest building.
Anybody know why this building (unlike the considerably smaller proposed Crowne Plaza) doesn’t seem to present a problem for the Met Eirann radar? Is it just related to the considerably smaller cross section?
As I understand it the Crowne Plaza can’t be built above 3 stories until the the radar has been raised ~ 13m (or a new one built if the height can’t be increased, either option at the expense of the developers). Just wondering why it isn’t a problem for this building.
