to be fair, if I lived in west cork, miles from any entertainment, shops, pubs, people, then I'd want a massive house too, or I'd go fucking mad in the head, especially in dark winters, where it rains for 4 months solid.holly cairns will surely save the entire cork building sector
Holly Cairns plans to build house more than twice the size of average home
Social Democrats leader Holly Cairns — who claimed last week that ministers don’t understand the cost-of-living crisis because they can “pay for everything” — has sought planning permission to build a 243sqm home in West Cork on her family’s farm.www.independent.ie

I think that those talks have been going on for a long while (late last year) and good to see those much needed apartments proceed.There is talk that the NDA has struck a deal with the developers of the apartment block that is planned for Horgans Quay.
Also some development on the O Callaghan apartments on Kennedy Quay, well talk of same. Hopefully they will get underway within the next few months
I believe also that The Marquee has found itself a new home thereby allowing the apartment development on that site to proceed
The new student apartment blocks on the Straight Road (just beyond the County Hall) look ok, now that the external finishes are applied.
During construction, I thought they would be awful. Pleasantly surprised.
The minecraft one is growing on me, I though it was rank at the startThe entire area of Victoria cross has been systematically destroyed with cheap high rise flats in varying states of poor external maintenance.
Its a shame as it used be a nice area.
