A vast mass of mediocrity at Liffey Valley
Despite frequent indications to the contrary, the Flood tribunal will eventually conclude. Presumably around the same time, all contempts of court will have been purged, conclusions reached, contrition expressed and, if we are fortunate, some forthright decisions taken about the implementation of better urban development. But one large and inescapable legacy will remain; hanging high over the junction of the M50 and the N4, on a site once known as Quarryvale, stands the Liffey Valley Centre.
