    Cobblelock surfaces can tend to work loose over the years & would be perfect for putting through a train window. The black of the asphalt would be a good contrast to the yellow warning line on the platform edge. (Yellow & black are about the best cobntrast for the visually impaired)
    Makes sense to me

    1)

    tall buildings are part of the solution-emphasis on part
    I personally would not put forward Temple Bar as a model-only as a place to avoid at the weekends & experiance the after effect of our “pub Culture”

    4)bit of a sweeping statement & therefore difficult to answer. buildings should be judged on their own merits

    5) I think you will find that that is also Dublin City Council’s view. (Development plan Appendix 18 & later Strategy for high buildings)

    6) “such buildings lean towards polorisation and ghetoistaion” a bit generalised. How?

    7) “Where are these buildings to be built? A tall buildings policy would be needed.”

    As a starting point-how about the Dublin Corporation (as it was) commissioned report
    DEWG report “a strategy for high buildings”

    8) why? how will the circumstances be better in 15years
    seems like an argument for no change

    9) Yet another sweeping statement & might I say a disservice to those in the industry- I don’t think that argument stands as a reason not to proceed

    10)Ok
