Sir, If according to Ms Margaret Hayes and Jim McGuigan of Bord Failte, O'Connell Street has an "image problem" then surely this is the perfect to cat ion for Ireland's new national convention centre.
Full planning permission, no objections, ten big conferences a year, new shops etc., increased revenue from tourism, not to mention the creation of jobs O'Connell Street has waited patiently for this. The main street of our capital deserves it! Yours, etc., Redford Park, Greystones, Co Wicklow.
