thats more like it.
From the bit of the globe i have have thread in my life one thing has struck me, nearly where you go , you can be sure to come across an “Irish theme Pub” and a “McDonalds”. about the architecture of these pub most just enploy olde worlde objects , mock signs and smoke stained walls and wood .These are employed in much the same way as McDonalds use boards that look like brick and tin roof that look like tiles.
The reason i think that makes Irish Pubs popluar was there social aspect and the buzz, something which relies on the people not the slap up decor.This project sounds very promising and could do wonders for the area.
But I dont understand the Park`n`ride?
Great!… people will now be able to drive into Pearse street park their cars and catch the dart/train to work in …???
I`m sure it will do wonders for the city!!A similar idea was mooted a few years back to save the cooling tower in Tullamore, but in this case the chimney was to have a glass top for veiwing and painted to look like a pint of Guinness.
