People of Dublin finally see the light

The Irish Times

The top of the Spire finally "sparkled" into life for the first time last night. The top nine metres of the 120-metre Spire, on Dublin's O'Connell Street, began to shimmer at about 9 p.m. As dusk fell the 11,844 tiny holes around the top glistened and the permanent aviation light at its pinnacle shone with them for the first time.
