Ah Here.
This morning.
Via Irish Times:
Plans to remove the roof and add four storeys to a protected 19th-century house in Dún Laoghaire as part of a build-to-rent development have been submitted to An Bord Pleanála.
Ted Living Ltd is seeking permission for 146 rental-only apartments in blocks up to eight storeys on the old Tedcastles Yard industrial site, opposite the town’s west pier, using the Strategic Housing Development system due to be discontinued next year.
The site includes Dun Leary House, a distinctive yellow brick, detached four-storey house dating from the 1870s, built for the original owner of the adjoining coal yard.
Ted Living last year sought permission to demolish the house as part of plans for 161 build-to-rent apartments, but

Honestly, I loved this place. I cannot believe it: [proprieter] John Hyland is a legend. And now it’s closing down?

Meanwhile…
Turning a townscape into a disneyesque movie set is not a “great initiative”. The architecture of DL, if properly maintained, doesn’t need these absurd murals which belong on temporary hoardings and the like. https://t.co/n1oDAs2M3W

FIGHT!
First Saturday of pedestrianisation in Dún Laoghaire.
Nice atmosphere on George’s St. Lower. Lots of people around & clearly relaxed walking through the space.
Many businesses making the most of the additional space for outdoor dining & food stalls.#dlrcc#dlrSummerStreets pic.twitter.com/kpMObeNLbr

This morning.
Dun Laoghaire, county Dublin.
Street artists putting the finishing touches to a series of large murals as part of the ‘Dún Laoghaire Anseo’ project funded by Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council, with the assistance of Creative Ireland.
It challenged 14 artists to paint their interpretation of “the essence of the town” on its walls and buildings reflecting Dún Laoghaire’s ‘maritime heritage, its local characters and its wildlife’.
Any excuse.

‘ …but they rounded it up to 40 because that was the age of struggling fathers trying to bond with their sons while having an identity crisis at the same time’.
Ouch.
