If they just end up making this a public pool/lido it will be a shame.
It’s official.
We can’t have anything nice.

Sure we wont need it this week anyway with the waves we’ll be getting.
Someone suggested 1916 themed Quasar a few months ago and I haven’t stopped thinking about it.
Complete and utter spastics to all involved in this moronic venture.
Ah jaysus no! How am I gonna get my inner city water rafting fix now?!
Whoever came up with that is some spanner.
First the Bertie Bowl, now this. How much disappointment can one generation take?
The Second Captains episode where they interview Owen Keegan is amazing. He comes across as an absolute prick.
It’s about a 30 minute interview and he spends 25 minutes either defending this ridiculous idea with unbelievable stupid statements (local young lads love to jump into the Liffey therefore they will love to pay for using white water rafting facility) with no clear breakdown of costs or how feasible it would be to run.
I think the longer they left him talk about it and throwing the odd question at him, gave him enough rope to hang himself.
Really need to sort the Dock out, it looks so shit and really needs something to liven up the area. I’d go so far as possibly demolishing or refurbishing the existing offices into a more retail / entertainment zone around them as the offices are very dated.
I am not surprised. I would say they got their cut out for f that 2M and now
they are gone.
Would have been a nice feature for the city. Those involved in water rescue services will be devastated
Shame really :/
So…how much tax money did the company that rendered this now defunct project get?
Good, fucking stupid idea anyway… god knows how much money has been wasted on it so far though.
The only disappointment for me is knowing the local scum won’t get the opportunity to fuck a box of washing powder into it and create a massive foam party…
>Upwards of €2 million has been spent on this project
Straight away that’s €2 million pissed away with nothing to show for it.
And the ratepayers say hallelujah
Ice Town Costs Ice Clown His Town Crown.
I could make a joke about this, but too many business are dying right now and DCC are proposing frivolous spending.
They are so disconnected from those paying rates.
DCC need to start cutting such wasteful spending.
Was it not shelves a few months back.
It’s a shame. Dublin is in dire need of places we can gather that’s not a pub. Probably gonna be another hotel.
Not throwing money into a literal hole???? It would have cost 4 times what they costed it at anyway
Delighted it was shelved. Absolutely ridiculous idea.
Thank fuck for that.
Massive gold statue of Owen Keegan in a raft instead?
Shame
Time to build a nuclear silo at the Dublin Docks
Shocking and appalling that we don’t have access to affordable white water rafting in this country. We need to amend the constitution to make white water rafting a right for all
Why is this controversial lads there’s a similar thing at grand canal dock doesn’t seem to bother anyone
