Here is the tower "Oliver Towers," a singular towers, erected in 1968 and vacant since a fire in 2000, with its 2 leafless ginkgoes [sic]. If that is a "towers" then ginkgos has an e, I say.
Nobody thought the vacant and ruined building would ever get bought, nor that its mold and asbestos would get removed, nor that it would get rehabbed and converted to market-rate apartments — yet here we were supposedly seeing that occur? During an evening fog event in December 2018?

Capital Dock is one of the largest mixed-use developments ever built in Ireland and it was completed towards the end of 2018 but I was unable to gain access to the completed project until Easter weekend 2019. The compex spans 4.8 acres, providing more than 690,000sq ft of new mixed-use space, including offices, retail and family units, as well as more than 1.5 acres of public park space.
Global investment bank JP Morgan and jobs site Indeed have committed to occupy all of the available office space, and are preparing their new premises for occupancy in 2019.
Nearly 200 family units will be available to rent this year, with a dedicated on-site concierge, resident lounges, cinema, professional gym, business suites and a chef’s kitchen. There is also be a landscaped park and square open to the public.
The project will welcome new retailers in the coming year, including a restaurant and bar with a terrace, a gourmet grocer, and additional food and beverage offerings.
The Central Artery/Tunnel Project, nicknamed the Big Dig, was a megaproject in Boston that rerouted the Central Artery (Interstate 93) - the chief highway through the heart of the city - into a 3.5-mile (5.6 km) tunnel. The project also included the construction of the Ted Williams Tunnel (extending Interstate 90 to Logan International Airport), the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge over the Charles River, and the Rose Kennedy Greenway in the space vacated by the previous I-93 elevated roadway. The construction work began in 1991 and was scheduled to be completed in 1998; it wasn’t finished until 2006. The Big Dig was the most expensive highway project in the U.S. and was plagued by escalating costs, scheduling overruns, leaks, design flaws, charges of poor execution and use of substandard materials, criminal arrests and one death.

Water flows freely up to the edge of the plant two powerhouse now that the coffer dam has been removed. In the foreground, these stones provide a base for what will be a boat launch and a trail down to the water.

I had planned to visit Bray at least twice a year but I failed to maintain this schedule which is a pity but to be honest, with one exception, not much has changed since my last visit. The flood defence project is the exception because the is no doubting the fact that progress has been made since my last visit but considering that it started back in 2012 I am sure that many locals are less than impressed.
The River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme is one of the key capital investment projects by Wicklow County Council and the Office of Public Works (OPW) with an investment of €40 million.
Works on site have been ongoing since 2012. The main contractor was SIAC construction Ltd. who were on site for two years before the company went into examinership. The contract was terminated by agreement following conciliation resulting construction activities effectively being suspended since November 2013.
Wicklow County Council is now continuing the construction with Tom Foley Management Ltd taking on the role of Construction Management Service Provider and back in July 2014, works recommenced on the River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme.
To date a number of stages have been completed or are ongoing but unfortunately I do not have exact details. However, my photographs may give you some idea as to what has been accomplished to date
The original purpose of the scheme was to protect the town of Bray from flooding from the River Dargle. The Works consisted of the design and construction of flood defences, river widening and regrading along the lower reaches of the River Dargle. The works extended over approximately 3.3 km of the river from the N11 Bridge to the DART Harbour Bridge. The flood defences were required to provide protection against a 1 in 100 year fluvial flood and 1 in 200 year tidal flood. The Works also included the design and construction of 7mx4m culvert adjacent to Bray Bridge, the only vehicular bridge in Bray Town [I did not know that], to act as a fourth arch to the bridge.
The Scheme comprised of a variety of flood defences including construction of new sections of earth embankments, demolition and rebuilding of river walls with extensive stone and timber/timber-type facing, channel excavation and regrading, and river bank strengthening. A range of landscape treatments in and adjacent to the river are proposed to mitigate the impacts of the scheme on the local environment along the river corridor.
If anyone from Bray wishes to comment please to do so.

Wooden model buildings of an old Wild West ranch house fort, circa 1960s. Found in a old cardboard box, no lid, but covered with tape to keep all the parts in. Intriguing, we thought, gotta be something cool going on in there. Hauled it home, peeled off the sticky tape box top and found some big parts and little pieces to an old country western ranch or fort diorama. In the shop now, ready for an intrepid do-it-yourself-er that wants a cool construction project. Meanwhile, it's sitting around looking incredibly cool, just as it is...

This project if a combination Marriott Hotel and condominiums going up along boul. Ren-Levesque in downtonw Montreal. 40 stories high.
This melting look is caused by multiple pours of concrete. Some of the wet concrete of a new pour oozes between the form and the older (set) concrete. I particularly liked the look of this section.
We had to stop digging under the house for a while because the driveway was getting close to the size we want it. We needed to put a retaining wall up before the dirt stacked any farther into the yard.

It is in the process of being reclad and is about to lose its especial 1975ness. I saw it just in time!
