RTÉ is reporting that emergency stabilisation works were carried out last month on 14-17, Moore Street, Dublin, because the facade of No.15 was in danger of collapse.

Developers Chartered Land, who want to turn the four buildings into a 1916 interpretive centre (above) inside a massive shopping centre development, above, secured permission to carry out the works.

A group representing the relatives of the 1916 leaders want the buildings to be taken care of by a body such as the National Museum, and for the terrace and surrounding laneways to be preserved and restored as a battlefield site.

The plans by Chartered Land  (below) are open to submissions from the public until April 24.
