  1. Celtic Tiger Cranes and the Elysian Rising

    Cork City during the height of the Celtic Tiger era, captured in 2007 when Ireland’s construction boom was at its peak and the city skyline was dominated by cranes building new office blocks and apartments, including the Elysian Tower.

    It would all come crashing down financially within a year. Some apartments in the Elysian were vacant for years.

  2. Red Brick and Stone

    Following on from yesterday’s photo of Shandon Bells, here’s another one taken nine years earlier in 2007, on a day when it was about to rain, but the sun came out for one final glimpse of Cork before the wet enveloped the city.

    You can see Shandon Bells, the North Cathedral, SS Peter & Paul’s Church and the presbytery attached to that church.

    All taken from the roof of the car park on Grand Parade, but I think it’s blocked now. I’ll have a look this evening.
