DCC to leave Wood Quay: Why might they moving after just 30 years?

from The Pat Kenny Show

It was one of the most bitter planning battles in Dublin’s history. Wood Quay, a priceless Viking settlement, was built over despite mass protests, court challenges, and 200,000 signatures. The result: Dublin City Council’s civic offices, a controversial but now established architectural landmark on the banks of the Liffey, but just 30 years on, the council wants to walk away at a potential cost of half a billion euro - but why? Joining Pat to discuss is architect, Roisin Murphy.
