Cork needs more parks! 🌳
I think the site of the old Fás and Tax Offices on Sullivans Quay would be a great location for a new public park.
We need more open, green spaces in the city centre and this site has huge potential.
The Fás and Tax Offices were knocked in 2018. The site has been vacant ever since.
There was a plan to build a hotel on this site, but to the best of my knowledge, that planning application has now expired. We can’t let this site sit vacant and unused for another six years.
I have tabled a motion at the City Council that calls on the executive to explore the options of leasing or purchasing this site to create a new public park for the people of Cork.
We have to start making better use of vacant sites and derelict buildings across the city, if only in the medium term while new plans are being developed.
If we are serious about addressing the challenges of climate change, we need far more green spaces, more trees and more areas that can absorb water when it floods.
We also need more play spaces. There is a lot of space on this site, and there is no reason why we can’t have a playground here.
As the graffiti on the hoarding around the site says – we need the courage to be creative.
It's estimated that cats kill up to 16 million birds in Ireland each year. In a land where 63% of our birds are either red or amber-listed, this is a major threat. Please keep cats indoors, especially during the breeding season.
