    I’ve just been told by someone working in DDDA that it’s 100m, not 120m 🙁

    Treasury Holdings are still waiting for the Revenue Commissioners, the Garda and the ERHA to get their arses of the Hueston site AFAIK, nothing can happen till then.

    Good to see U2 tower increased to 120M, hopefully this will set a minimum standard in the area. The Point Village tower should be raised to match it.

    I can’t find the Kevin Roche plans, would be interested in seeing them too.

    just though id ask which is the final spencer dock plan? the one on the website or the one on treasurys website?

    Are you refering to the SpencerDock.ie site?

    This is the photomontage from TH:

    And from Spencerdock.ie

    Look the same to me. The former includes the NCC.

    I reckon 5 is the Pepper Canister on Mount Street.

    Correct, well spotted.

    It might be that warehouse that looks out over the Grand Canal basin, with one of the new buildings on Barrow Street behind it.

    Correctish. It’s acually boxed in by a new office development. You can no longer see it from the street or the basin.

    You can access it by wandering down this hidden alleyway like I did.

    Just a question about O Connoll street. How come we dont have a fountain ? I think it would really add to the street landscape. Something like what Madrid have.

    The whore in the sewer? That’s foutainish.

    Where’s it gone anyway? :confused:

    I honestly don’t forsee any problems with the 1916 march, just another piss up to most people.
