New racecourse grandstand plans near the post

CORK Racecourse is finalising proposals for a new €5 million stand on the course with work to be completed during the 2007/2008 season.

The 1,400 square metre grandstand/pavilion will be spread over two 700 square-metre storeys on the east side of the existing main stand.

It will look southerly across the race track and will replace an existing stand in that location.
