| 説明 | This €36 million building was, and may still be, detested by many in Dun Laoghaire and they often referred to it as a monstrosity or a total waste of taxpayers’ money.DLR Lexicon sits on a narrow site. It is bounded by the DART railway track, the Royal Marine Hotel and the National Maritime Museum of Ireland (a protected structure) so the designers were highly constrained.As I worked for a company based in Haigh Terrace I well remember the site before construction began and I avoided it after 7pm because the area was not safe. It was a run-down park, home to lots of feral cats, drug addicts, dealers and drunks. The initial job that had to be completed before work could begin was a sweep of the site for hazardous items such as needles, bottles and drink cans. The enabling works involved the dewatering of the existing pond and removal of the sludge. The sludge contained particular hazards which required the material to be dried on site and disposed of in an engineered landfill.Based on the above it could be argued that what is there now is much better than what was there a few years ago.The design, by Cork-based architects Carr Cotter & Naessens, was chosen after an international architectural competition in 2006 that attracted an initial 139 entries. During the planning phase there were very few submissions from the public mainly objecting to the scale of the project and the location. Once construction commenced the project attracted a massive amount of public protest and outrage. For more information about the building please visit www.ccnarchitects.net/dlr-lexicon/ |
