Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2004 / April 20 2004: Businesses urged to upgrade main street shopfronts

Businesses in the O'Connell Street area of Dublin have been urged to upgrade their shopfronts as a contribution to the rejuvenation of the city's principal thoroughfare. The Dublin city manager, Mr John Fitzgerald, said yesterday that the city council had already demonstrated its commitment to the area by erecting the Spire of Dublin and constructing a "grand civic plaza" in front of the GPO. Later this year, Luas would be traversing O'Connell Street at the junction with Abbey Street, making the area more accessible and bringing in many new visitors, and it was important that the business community should respond.
