Bringing culture back to Temple Bar?

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2004 / April 5 2004: Bringing culture back to Temple Bar?

A helium balloon ferrying people above the city, artists working in transparent mobile pods on the streets, a retractable roof over Meeting House Square, pubs closing at staggered times, ambitious environmental projects, clearly defined boundaries. It is 12 years since the original blueprint for Temple Bar triggered radical change for the area, and now a new urban framework plan has arrived with several ideas to nudge it in a new direction. Wednesday brought the closing date for written submissions about the plan.
