Video: 50th anniversary a high point for Cork’s iconic County Hall

Preparations are ongoing to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the construction of one of the country’s most iconic buildings, Cork’s County Hall.

The public building, at the time of its completion, was the tallest storeyed building in Ireland at 64.3m high.

It retained that status until 2008 when surpassed by another Cork development, the city centre residential and retail complex, The Elysian.
