    I heard from someone that they are to demolish the Fas-building?

    Anyone know anything about this or is it just an illfated rumour?

    Sure it is a sore sight, but it does serve a purpoe still, doesn't it?

    (And no, i'm not thinking of it as a shelter for the drunks in the rain) :P

    Its going to be knocked but due to the downturn this wont happen for a while

    They were supposed to knock it down alright. Since alot of work was done on Grand Parade, it was going to be replaced with a more pleasing building as when you look down the Parade, it's a real eyesore. The library as well was supposed to be knocked. But looks as it it will be put-off now.

    the building is half empty. The only folks left in the whole thing are the Fas offices. Havent' seen or noticed any notices though as yet. Ya know those tiny little things with small print in a5 size etc stating as destruction/construction of new apartments as such.

    Now the money is not there I suspect it will stand as it is. Note the lack of large cranes in Cork lately?
