Demolish Crumlin

[galteeman]

Doesn’t necessarily have to be Crumlin and could be some other ************************hole but shouldn’t we seriously be thinking of making some improvements around here while simultaneously getting people back to work?. I mean there is no escaping the fact that large areas of the city and country towns are eyesores and this will always have a draining effect on people’s confidence.
While driving though Crumlin the other day it crossed my mind that with so many tens of thousands of construction workers, architects, planners etc. on the dole that some huge public works projects should be carried out to get them working again.
The idea would be that we take somewhere like the Phoneix Park and construct a perfect suburb with the best of modern planning. Then you do a compulsory move of everyone in Crumlin to a nicer property in this new place at no cost to them and turn what was once Crumlin into a park.
Then you move on to the next ************************hole and do the same.
All workers on the projects have to come from the dole, they have no choice but to do it or be cut off and they are paid a fair wage.
Is the govt. serious about creating jobs or not?.

I live a stone's throw away from Dolphin House flats, which are pretty appalling structures for the State to be providing public housing in. Be a great place to do a bit of genuine, non (Celtic Tiger) cynical regeneration.

Moving skangers around doesn't stop them being skangers........

What upset you so much about Crumlin? It's an old settled community, even if the houses look a bit dull and samey. They are very solid and well-built, however.
Some people find those small pebble-dashed houses charming....Is it not better to have real streets full of real, solid houses near the city, rather than those windswept, jerry-built estates near roundabouts, miles from anywhere?

I assume you've never been to Crumlin and just picked it because it's one of the cheap properties on the Monopoly board. It is far from the most dilapidated part of Dublin.

Silly me. I misread the title and for a secon thought it said 'Demolish Cruimh'

Are you seriously advocating demolishing Crumlin and rebuilding in the Phoenix Pk? Its a bit of a crazy suggestion but slightly ironic that where you advocate rebuilding is so close to the zoo
