No. The lagoon stays. It will be held back by earthworks.

could Michael not recite his “architectural prose†across the road in the White House any night. :rolleyes:
Nope. Michael isn’t across the road from the White House any more, and anyway, maybe I’m being a bit unfair in accusing him of writing this appalling archibabble. With the recent expansion of his business, he could easily afford a junior associate to spout pretentious shite on his behalf.

A new contemporary facade contrasts the strong Georgian context while continuing the rhythm and proportion of the surrounding streetscape through the defined geometries and alignments of the polished sandstone cladding.
Ah for God’s sake, gimme a break. Michael Healy never sank to that sort of pretentious horse-shit in the old days.
Is it all going to his head?

It looks like it was built by a milkman.

It didn’t take a firm of specialist consultants to see that it was crazy to use the Market as a car park. It’s just that the Trustees didn’t have the imagination to hear what everyone in Limerick was telling them.
Anyway, we hope that’s all in the past and the Market can be developed into the exciting place it always had the potential to be.
I’m a bit unsire about the roof. In good weather it would take away from the open-air feel of the market, but on the other hand I know from practical experience how much bad weather reduces trade.
Let’s see the proposal.
