Nothing overly grabs my attention this time..
- I like the housing development in concept but I'm not convinced by the finishing
- Giant's Causeway visitor centre fits its brief, I guess
- Chapel looks like a grain silo from the outside! (And it's a chapel)
- The castle is not new
- Park Hill looks like dozens of places in Holland and Scandinavia?
- Limerick Uni looks like a throwback to 60s Oxford College buildings .. some of which are now listed, inconvenient as they are due to collapse with concrete rot..
