Some building are difficult to get pictures of – they may be in the background but not the subject

Paul ClerkinKeymasterMan they really missed a good chance with that Massimo Dutti shopfront. Completely ignores the second floor rhythm.

Paul ClerkinKeymasterThey’re probably historic now… we should save them…

I am looking for debate and support in regard to saving the facade of the Ormond Hotel in Dublin. I saw a forum that was running way back in 2005 /6 when contributors were deploring the changes to the streetscape and commending the historical and cultural worth of the site of Joyce’s siren chapter. Are there any such protests now over the current planning application? along with any support for retaining the facade and having it protected?
I am a resident concerned about the changes and the loss of a significant part of Dublin’s Literary Heritage. What an embarrassment when Dublin has recently been named an EU city of literature…
My friends and I are keen readers of Joyce’s work and are hoping to hear from you that such people as J Seerski are still fighting for the life and fabric of the Ormond facade.

I wasn’t going to comment on this but I will…
Yes, the site has had technical difficulties but this isn’t some small site on wordpress.com or blogger. It’s huge and when it has problems, they tend to be magnified. Other large architecture sites have teams of people – editors, writers, tech to sort out issues. Archiseek has to wait until I finish the dayjob, spend some time with the kids and then hopefully if I’m not completely knackered I might get an hour or two to sort out some stuff. And I’m not a sysadmin type person.
We’ve had a couple of signifcant outage recently due to issues at Digiweb in Dublin – one today for example. Those are completely outside of my control.
If there’s relevant news, I post it during the day, but upgrades and continuous development take time. In that time I could be doing paid work for other people – work I could really do with, but I do this because I love it. There’s zero financial benefit to me in doing this.
You’re all welcome to your opinions, and opinions are what makes the discussion board hum, so feel free to disagree amongst yourselves. Forums have become diluted over the last 5/6 years due to dicussion on everything from twitter to facebook to flickr. Outside of blogs, the era of the one-person website is well and truly over.
I shall continue to do my best…. as I still believe the site has a lot to offer.
