Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2004 / April 1 2004: Fortifying the community with the light of sport

If only the disaffected youth had somewhere to go. That's often the lament of those who want to steer "at risk" kids away from drugs and crime.

Henchion-Reuter Architects was appointed to design the Cabra facility (as well as the centre in Donore Avenue, due to be completed soon). In talks with community groups, Martin Henchion found that people were nervous about attacks on the building - from flying footballs and sliotars, and vandalism.
