Dublin councillors were looking at Limerick as a model for regeneration. But there’s disquiet there now, with concerns about transparency, oversight, and control over development.
No decision has been made on whether that will happen, a Dublin City Council spokesperson has said. But it hasn’t been ruled out.
It has issued a tender for a feasibility study. The documents include few details, but they do confirm the likely future uses for the historic building.
The chair of the city-centre taskforce, David McRedmond, wrote recently that the developer Ballymore has plans to “completely rebuild the Sheriff Street area”.
Councillors said that they feel the city was just used as the backdrop for a pre-election PR campaign.
