      Hello all, very cool site you have here, nice to know whats going on in the buildings you walk past everyday.

      I realise someone might have been through this already and for that I apologise, but does anyone know exactly what kind of development they’re planning for the docklands, and the e.t.a of all this? My reason to ask is that I work in a building right next to it and walk up it on a daily basis, so this question is born mostly from latent curiosity…

      Yeah I think it would be a great idea now that the Docklands seem to be finally getting a move on – I was merely referring Frogmarch to the ‘Look at de state of Cork, like!’ thread for him to be able to look up news posted thus far.

      “news” is a bit of a stretch 😀

      the most exciting thing i’ve seen proposed for the docklands is wilson’s vague sketches from the late 90’s.

      What about Water Street??? Or McCarthy Developments 120,000sq ft office development??? Eglinton Street??? I suppose whatever floats your boat – but I think they’re slow but surely positive steps.

      well, eglington is one thing, some decent development farther out towards the pairc is another matter. water street is stalling and compromised, CIE are holding up any development on their land, R&H hall, odlums, and all the other plots down there are woefully underdeveloped given the boom we’ve had in this country in the last 10 years, and it’s getting quite tiring to see some of the delapitation down there.

      i’ve been hearing tid-bits on plans and strategies for years now, and it’s quite frustrating. forgive my impatience.
