Decisions.

Meanwhile…

The crossroads adjacent to St. Patrick’s Cathedral was once known as 'The Four Corners of Hell', famous for a pub on each corner and it's rowdy crowds & punch ups. The pubs were Kenny’s, O’Beirne’s, Lowe’s and Quinn’s. Quinns is now demolished and site of 'The Fourth Corner' pub pic.twitter.com/4ksac7AofH

Saturday.

Summerhill, Dublin 1.

Seth McGuinness writes:

Here is a snapshot of what is regularly going on from the people living in the ‘apartments’ in Summerhill.

For years people have pleaded with Dublin City Councilcouncil to do something about it (after all they’re the council), but nothing has been done.

It is happening in broad daylight with no attempt to hide the activity.

As I’ve said, this is a snapshot, the level of on street dumping in the north of the city is astonishing and the place is turning into a slum.

People should be held to account.

Anyone?
