    Yeah i think having a wooden floor looks good and not having it as a carpark. Although will that work considering cars are chalk a block around where the library is!

    I think Stephen street is planned for improvement as well.

    Other parts of the plan include turning Quay St Car Park into a park.

    Big public car park the other side of the library..

    Get rid of the 'residents' and use the car park for parking cars.

    This is a great idea tbh, has the potential to be a lovely part of town. Wasted as a car park, particularly given how few spaces there actually are.

    What do I think? If its anything like the Wine Steet Car Park proposals, and OConnell Street improvments, we will be waiting a very very long time for anything to happen, if it ever happens.

    Probably need to open other pedestrian routes between Stephen st and connaughton road to make it more accessible.

    Brilliant idea should have been done years ago, usual negative Sligo reaction from some people, and we wonder why the place is so cat. If all the councillors in Brussels by some miracle became Sligo people the Grand Place and the guild halls around it would be leveled because you couldn't expect people to walk more than 50 yards from Their car.

    In fairness, I think the negative reaction is so what justified. Just how long were people talking about Wine Street Car Park improvments? That never happened. How long have they been talking about OConnell Street Improvements, and still yet to happen. From them two examples alone, you wonder if Stephen Street will ever happen as well.

    Looks good.

    If you look really closely you can still see the lads drinking cans in the shade of the tree.
