    passed it yesterday and it looks great to be fair, deserves a few quid if you can afford it. (they have a fundit page) my only hope is that it doesnt become an issue when newgate/that site is being developed year or couple of years down the line.

    It likely will,
    Community puts thousands of hours and heaps of money into a project only for it to be bulldozed, it'll def be an issue

    I thought the whole idea was that it was a temporary measure to clean up the unsightliness in the meantime?

    Or is it some sort of Brendan McCann-inspired trojan horse to stop the development ever going ahead?

    Whatever it may be, folks, it looks absolutely savage. It's a credit to all involved and I can't wait to see it complete.

    just donated on fundit, program of events they hope to do looks great too. i was in 2 minds whether to do it or not as i dont want it to become a block to newgate centre mark2 but so much good work put in by so many people deserve credit.

    Thats my understanding of the idea as well, however people can become attached to things after they put alot of work into them...can't say I blame them especially as green spaces are important

    Congrats to the New Street Gardens folks for achieving their Fundit target yesterday. €10,325.00 that will go to towards the further development of our new city garden. Good news on a sunny day :)
