Cork City Hall begins talks with skyscraper developers

Senior officials at Cork City Council continue to meet with the developers behind plans to build a skyscraper twice the height of the Elysian tower in the city’s docks, writes Kevin O'Neill.

City planners are hoping to see progress on the ambitious development of the 40-storey skyscraper in 2018, but warned that the current plans contravene zoning in the area.
