City manager ‘infuriated’ by Sky Garden criticism

Cork’s city manager has offered a staunch defence of the contentious Sky Garden project, saying criticism was “infuriating”.

Works to install the Diarmuid Gavin-designed garden, in Fitzgerald Park, will begin in April as part of Cork City Council’s €2.37m Mardyke Gardens project.

Tenders for the work, due to wrap up in September, will be sought in the coming weeks.
