There has been a small issue regarding #BelfastGrandCentralStation that I have refrained from speaking upon publically until I got a concrete answer from @Translink.

The 'station canopy' or 'train hall' like what you see at Dublin Connoly or Hueston Stations has been axed.

I'm researching how privatised temporary interventions have implications for liveability & social activity. If you are familiar with Blackstaff Sq & Brunswick St Social Hub (Flaxx), Belfast, I would appreciate it if you would complete this questionnaire. https://t.co/jf7ROSvjO6

@grafferty @belfasthealthy @belfastcc @calliepersic @ProfMartinHaran @LindaMcelduff @McdevittNiamh Fantastic new data source! It will be really beneficial in identifying the urban environmental characteristics which contribute to the success of our streets and public spaces. I really hope data on Belfast is released in the near future!

[Jonah Carty @jonah_carty]

@trafford_adam Really nice map, it’s amazing how much has changed over the years!
