We were privileged to cycle behind Paddy on his last bike ride today. Thank you to the Cahill family...Very sad but so dignified, taking in the Mater Hospital @MaterDublin. A remarkable cycle really:irishtimes.com/news/ireland/…

Both fall under the #shd legislation - the application goes direct to An Bord Pleanala + not through the usual, local authority #planning process - however, anyone can still make an observation on comment on the applications - find out how here - bit.ly/3pNA5fm 2/6

From William IV to masters of Modernism - new Open House Journal entries by Emma Gilleece, Graham Hickey and Ellen Rowley. Come & have a read at openhousedublin.com/journal/ #openhousedublin #TheExtraordinaryOrdinary #2weeks2go #OpenHouseWorldwide #OpenCities #IrishArchitecture
Well done indeed. But lets not forget the Conservation Office team in DCC. A lot of slog goes into getting buildings over the line and protected. #Unsungheros

This is not an iconic building - it's iconically crude, says Mr Carroll. I firmly believe that even the best architects in Europe would struggle to design a tower in this sensitive location'

'This project will benefit from large sums of money from the EU, normally on condition is contains dwellings and housing. Yet all that is offered here is an apartment hotel in one corner'
