in real life, i’d examine the dates of the implementation of the relevant regs, then examine the date planning was granted, you may find that one was before the other. in my own office, we had an application to be granted a week before the part m regs were revised, but were thrown out on a ridiculous technicality (they sent it back for paying too high a fee, if you can believe that). subsequently the whole scheme had to be revised to comply with the new requirements.
dammit. i was trying to all pictorial to keep the legal at bay. everyone just assume it was witty but inappropriate.
i’m aware, i designed it in the early stages. haven’t seen anything on it since september though. anything you can release yet or will i have to demand it from the big man in HPA?
could we get some of those schemes up on the unbuilt ireland section? it’d be interesting to see the approaches adopted by various irish practices.

😎 An undisclosed buyer is rumoured to have successfully purchased the 80,000sq ft Marina Park storage site near Kennedy Quay. The ‘corporate’ buyer is said to have purchased the waterfront site for an est’d 8m + euros from auctioneers Cohalan Downing. A major commercial development is said to be in preplanning for this location which will take full advantage of the proposed 25m euro Water Street bridge.
The above deals represent strong headway in the development of the Cork City Docklands.
is there anyone here who might be able to help me track down survey drawings of this site. cohalan downing have been no help, and i’m presuming an architect/surveyor must have been involved at some stage if the site was being sold. any idea who might be able to help? purely educational use. thanks.
this thread is due a revival. how cultural has cork gotten in the last few days? (haven’t been down since xmas)
lexington, do you have any idea of the price on the site for sale by cohalan downing beside the beamish and crawford units on the quays? beside the old ford plant, i mean

a metallic aqueous structure nearby. used to anyway.
lexington, where are you getting these images? have you seen the ORSA design fronting hte main road? this project is to be phased in design, planning and implementation as i understand it. i’ve seen it piece-meal.

I’m afraid to ask… but are there any images of this proposed monster?
it’s not as unasailably awful as it might be. several architects are involved, and the varied design aesthetics create diversity and contrast which takes away from the overall mass of it.
