You know the bridge from the Cathedral into town, when you walk over it and look to you right there is some big building being built called Born In Galway that looks out on the river, does anyone know what it is? ALso I think it's across from the school there. Sorry for not being too clear.

Hey, does anyone know the e-mail address for that new shopping centre that's going to be opening up - Born. I think you have to send them CVs through there? A quick google search did nothing.

Thanks.

Merged. The advertiser says: "CVs can be e-mailed to jobs @ thebornstore . com"

was in the born store today - i have to say i was thoroughly impressed. the building is very pleasant to shop in - bright and superb views over the canal and river. the clothing range is mostly young and trendy and with 20% off sure i wouldve been crazy not to pick up a few bits!

minxie

anyone know if its open today
might go down and have a look

Have to say was slightly disappionted with ladies section. Suppose was anticipating something fabulous. It is a really lovely store but I had hoped the product would be little more exciting.. Mens is amaxing but ladies lacking The merchendising was a bit meh imo and the staff didnt seem very clued in or interested.

While well worth a look - cant see it surviving as a lot of the brands they do can be purchased much much cheaper on line and over heads will require massive turnover to sustain things.

But never the less hope they do.

I was in for a look yesterday, was expecting to see a few shops in there but its all the one. They have some nice stuff in there but I thought it was very expensive, saw a jacket that cost more than I make in a week and nothing special about the jacket either.

It looks like it sells clothes made out of pixie dust, or at least pure migraine. I don't see it lasting long. Although the shinysparklygirly demographic might lap it up.

banshee_bones

What brands are they selling? is it just the one shop or more than one? is it all clothes?

dmcg90

They sell Diesel and Jack and Jones I think, haven't been in but i'm imagining it's more of a concession style shop like Tempest up north.

It'l be interesting to see if i102-104 are going to broadcast a lot of programmes from there.

I really like it! Spent some time in there today, wandered around upstairs and down.

I think the mens is brilliant, really well laid out, ample amount of clothing, LOVE The suits area. They view of the river and catherdral is amazing!
Real funky law out, cool gadgets, really reasonable prices.

The girls area is bright and girly, loads of clothes, very much the same, bows and frills, but are all really pretty, some cool Kate Moss tee's, really reasonable at €22.

I can't wait for the cafe to open, great views.

They have little furniture area, expanding I think, looks good.

It gets a thumbs up from me!!!!
