OK this will sound very childish but I have to say it.
I couldn’t give a flying **** about any of this political bullshit. I just want to see a whole load of cranes in the docklands and this HH project built asap with as little meddling as possible. Why the hell are they lobbing 2 storeys off anyway? As if that’s going to make a difference when the tallest has 28 floors or something.Sorry but I’m really starting to not like this tower. I thought this was supposed to be a landmark building, however is a massive eyesore as seen in the picture below. From this side it looks particularly bad:
I really expected a lot more from this, and now they’ve stuck that white cheap-looking this on top. Wasn’t that supposed to be a penthouse?
The county hall with the new cladding looks much better IMO, especially at night. The problem with this one is not the shape but the cheap materials.Sorry for the rant.
Some Apartment block (taken from same area)
Development by Dennehy’s Cross. Seems pretty large, 8 stories.
I was bored the other day so I decided to take the camera with me and walk to Bishopstown instead of taking the bus. In fact the uploading of these photos took longer than actually taking them
This is the site where a petrol station used to be and has been empty for ages. It’s opposite the river from the juries hotel. Sorry to keep asking this question but, anybody knows if there are plans for here?
UCC building extension. Sorry about the bad photo, the sun was right in the way at that time
UCC new IT centre
Hole in the ground beside county hall
Random building 1. Again a big crane for a not so large site. Anyone know what’s going on here? It’s one of the streets off Grattan Street
Random building 2. Anyone know what’ll happen here?

Academy Street dev. Drilling going on already, I was expecting the site to remain empty for a year or 3 as usual.
Cornmarket street dev
If you stand outside the college of com and look across the river there’s a big crane in your view. It turns out it’s just for some house.
Hotel on South Mall / Parnell Place. Signboards are definitely useful, now I know what this thing looks like. Wish all construction sites had these.
Dunnes. Looks like a bomb exploded back there with the amount of demolished stuff. Anyone have renders for this?
This building near penrose wharf
Can’t remember this
Student accommodation
CSM
Moores hotel now boarded. Is this being knocked?
Has this restarted?
Another site:
There’s a massive hole in the ground right beside county hall. Anyone know what’s being built there?

eglinton looks fantastic i must say.
I think it’ll look very good but on 2 sides only, on the north and east facing sides they have this horrible grey cladding. Don’t know why they couldn’t use the same materials as on the other sides.
