    That's a council project , see ya in 2030.

    I did see a barge at the mail pier during the week that looked like it wasn't fit for leaving the harbour. It looks like may have been laying the pipes for the heat exchanger

    Those chaps at the Carlisle pier are working on repairs to the fenders and piling on Berth 2 (East pier side of the Carlisle Pier). It's to allow small cruise ships, navy ships, Granuaile etc to dock without bits of the pier falling off! There are other chaps working on Berth 4 and 5 (the old Lynx berth and the HSS berth) to take away the old Stena infrastructure - namely the walkways and loading ramps for the HSS.

    No move on the Urban Beach so far.

    There is a beauty salon (or something like that) opening in Central Park in June. Pretty sure it's the first one of those retail units that have actually been rented out in years.

    at the risk of sounding thick, where is Central park? I've never heard of it (moved back 2 years ago so missed a few naming ceremonies).

    Heard a whisper that Argos might be leaving Dun Laoghaire.

    Central Park is Leopardstown I think, sort of behind Vodafone.

    Not quotation police was just trying to politely say your post made no sense without context.
    Maybe you should learn to be polite and people will understand you better.

    will be interesting to see if they can compete on price with Tesco & Argos?

    remember they had a toy shop go into the old Knowles site?
    it lasted all of five minutes.

    It's the offices / apartments / retail units beside Vodafone and the Clayton Hotel in Leopardstown. I've no idea why it's called Central Park because there's nothing central about it, nor is there any sort of park.

    To date the only retail units have been Centra, Munchies and Baan Thai. The rest of the units have been empty since they were built back in the Tiger, but there is a beauty salon opening in one of them now (the unit closest to the Luas stop).

    there was something odd & creepy looking about that shop. All the boxes in the window had faded terribly in the sun.

    It is now the sari sari Filipino store that was previously opposite walters pub at the peoples park. I find it has gotten better these days. Always check the BB dates in these shops.

    New windows and doors appeared in the long boarded up large unit across from Applegreen in Ballybrack village. Looks retail ready?

    Yeah I was surprised when I saw they had closed because they always seemed busy at the weekends alright. Probably very slow trade during the week.

    The Vanilla Pod (of Carrickmines retail park fame) are opening a unit in the Blackrock Shopping Centre on the ground floor where that cafe encore used to be.

    Also heard that the Mellow Fig are opening a take out only deli two doors down from where Rage restaurant is in Blackrock

    Do you mean the 'Sol' operation in the rear corridor of Dunnes Cornelscourt? That's been in operation for a while now.

    Twyford Motors has moved to Cornelscourt according to the guys in the fruit & veg shop across the road, I've no idea where exactly.

    The entire Twyford motors site and adjoining buildings and car park seems to have been cleared up and cleaned in the last few days. Plans afoot for development maybe??
