  1. The inside needs a revamp though. It’s the outside we should be keeping

  2. I’m in the very small minority where I very much dislike this building. Gosh it’s so ugly.

  4. A very inefficient use of space. I always hated going in there, to see the layers of crud and dirt on the roofs of the ground floor kiosks and tight corridors on the higher levels.

  6. Site itself has a bit of history to it…

    Originally owned by Gallagher’s Bank in Dublin for 50,000, when sale of the site fell through in 1982 for 15 million, the Bank collasped lot of pensioners and investors lost lot of money….

  7. Preserve the exterior or propose a design that does Dublin and Ireland proud; gut the interior.

  9. Knock it ta fuck and build a Costa Megaplex in it’s place.

  10. Would make a cool bird sanctuary or botanical garden

  15. There is a lot of dead space inside. The whole restaurant area has never worked. The top floor is a deadzone. It wasn’t there until 1988 I honestly don’t get the attraction. While the new design is very bland I would rather see something more functional than what’s there.

  16. Looks shite “classy christmas” is a rotten idea

  20. It really is the most beautiful shopping centre in the most beautiful city.

  22. Seriously its a fucking gaudy 1980s shopping centre with declining occupancy rates and shoppers because units are cramped and theres no room for expansion.

    Id understand if it was old building or attached to a historic event or something but its just people now 30+ being caught up in the nostalgia of spending their youth there in 90s.

    Most people complaining havent set foot in the places since the ones that have probably havent bought much from it either.

  23. Will definitely go to a place like this on Christmas when Im 72.
