    Maybe it’ll trigger some other highrise developement around it so it won’t stick out as much.

    Wow, Sligo’s getting a 15-storey highrise? How long after it gets permission does it take for it to move forward?

    Just what I was thinking. I don’t think renderings are going to be able to capture the full extent of what the building will be like.

    Also, do you think the U2 Tower will ever get underway? 🙁

    I guess its showing that it will be finished in spring or summer? Thats why the branches are there with leaves? Maybe?

    I’m happy for Cork.

    I did not know of this “plans for the Docklands – for which a new 25million euro tilting bridge is proposed at Water Street to Kennedy Quay and a new 20-storey hotel, 3,000 seat convention centre and offices (rumoured to be aimed 2 large German banks) on Kennedy Quay.”

    Any pictures or additional information? Thanks mate.

    I like it too. It’s hard to imagine seeing that in reality cos its like something I’ve only seen in renderings. But I think it will look great though.

    Exciting, definately. I wish I could see a larger photo so we could see more detail, but that’ll come with time hopefully. I hope it gets permission.

    Shame. It was a great design.
