    It's not as bad as ye make it out to be!
    The only fault I can find with Colbert Station is it's location.
    Parnell St is what really needs redevelopment!

    agreed. what a horrible horrible part of town. It has so much potential, its such a wide street and im sure none of the buildings are listed, surely as its the gateway to the town for so many people something can be done while theyre trying to improve the rest of the city.

    parnell street and william street are some of the most depressing parts of town

    It's amazing how run down Parnell st. is. With a 10 year boom you'd think someone would have done something there.

    I'm more concerned with them fixing William St 1st to be honest...

    Yeah, but we know the refurbishment of William St. is due to start this Autumn. There's no plans of anything for Parnell st. afaik.

    William St must be one of the worse city centre streets in Ireland, hopefully the refurbishment will change that.
