IrishtownParticipantWow, Cork could be alot different in the coming years.
IrishtownParticipantMaybe it’ll trigger some other highrise developement around it so it won’t stick out as much.
IrishtownParticipantWow, Sligo’s getting a 15-storey highrise? How long after it gets permission does it take for it to move forward?

And any opinions on posted pictures above?lexington- thanks for posting those. Do you have details on the two projects?

I think that these projects will be finished long before the U2 Tower. Sexy photoshop aside, it will be impossible to judge these buildings with out seeing plans and internals….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? 🙁

kind of weird the way the branches of the tree flash in and out as the new extension does in that flashy photo isnt it?I guess its showing that it will be finished in spring or summer? Thats why the branches are there with leaves? Maybe?
IrishtownParticipantI’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 quite like the Manuel Aires Mateus hotel….
http://www.irish-architecture.com/news/2004/000109.htmlI 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.
IrishtownParticipantI think I’ll have to get me one!

Do you understand the word “exciting”? 😉🙂 Haha, well it is exciting. I mean Cork may get another highrise. Thats something exciting.
IrishtownParticipantExciting, 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.
