THE first images of what the new €106m Cork University Business School (CUBS) will look like if cleared by city planners shows a stunning, heavily glazed building, of up to six storeys, dominating the riverscape at the city end of South Terrace.

Designed by a team led by RKD Architects, the new school will give a dramatic facelift to what is largely a non-descript site, at the former Brooks Haughton premises on Copley Street, facing onto the south channel of the River Lee.
