The 34 storey ‘Watchtower’ near the Point Depot is already under construction so when the lift shaft starts going up for that and thoughts of Belfast or Cork having the tallest building on the island will be consigned to the dustbin of history. What will be interesting is if this starts the ball rolling for more skyscrapers. I think once people see the U2 tower and watchtower going up they will probrably realise thsat skyscrapers can be attractive on the skyline and is one solution to endless sprawl which will be a combination of things. Highrise is certainly part of that.
i don’t think dublin’s watchtower is under construction yet. where did you hear that it is?
i know there has been talk of these towers for quite some time but i just thought that they might of had something on the tv regarding the construction of ireland’s first skyscraper. i’m glad i missed nothing so.
i wonder was this skyscraper featured on the news recently? i saw nothing. i thought ireland’s first skyscraper would be in there somewhere.
has anyone an update on what is happening with obel? i would love to see some images if it’s under construction.
why do people propose such tall buildings here when they haven’t a hope in hell of being built? those 51 storey buildings are a perfect example. they will not get the go ahead.
While I do like some of the buildings above I do think they are very flat. I am looking forward to seeing the U2 Tower go up. It should make a nice change to the area. Is the U2 Tower starting any time soon? I think the sooner they start it the better.

Anyone know who the architect and developer are?
I can’t decide whether I like it or hate it either.
