Thu 02 Feb 2010Siptu set to lodge new Liberty Hall plan with 'sky pod' top
SIPTU WILL today lodge a planning application with Dublin City Council to replace Liberty Hall with a significantly taller building, topped by a “sky pod” that would give visitors panoramic views over the city and Dublin Bay.
Although the scheme has been discussed in detail with Dublin city planners, it is likely to be opposed by those who believe that the present building, which dates from 1965, is an icon for the emergence of modern Ireland.
