As you can see from my photographs work has resumed on the multi-million Greystones harbour and marina development project, with the first of more than 350 new homes expected to be offered for sale by April 2016. Because of the weather I did not photograph the new houses. The project has already seen the old Victorian era harbour replaced by a new structure with south and north piers, a large marina and ongoing work on five new clubhouses for sea scouts, divers, sailors, rowers and anglers. Also included in the project is a coastguard station, a new town square, a 16-acre public park, a new beach and marine-related shops and leisure facilities. It should be interesting to see if the ‘Public Areas’ are truly public and if the remain so for more than a year or two … I say this because there are many signs indicating that Fishing, Swimming or Jumping was not allowed. I will visit again later in the year, assuming that the weather improves.
Today we publish a nice video of an old chimney demolition on abadoned foundry as part of a large-scale redevelopment project for an old industrial area of Chelyabinsk.

The Central is closed for the weekend for any tram traffic: They need to replace the tracks due to the high wear on them.

Schloßwand mit Kran!
Am 12. Juni 2016 war ich mit Freunden im Berliner Bezirk Mittezwischen dem Kupfergraben sowie der Baustelle des „Berliner Schlosses“ bzw. „Humboldtforum“ unterwegs und habe dabei diese Aufnahmen gemacht.
About a week ago I met Mannix Flynn who was protest against the renewal of BID under the banner “WE ARE NOT DUBLIN TOWN”. As various parties are now exchanging legal letters I will not comment further on this issue. I was a bit surprised that he was not too happy with the LUAS Cross City project. Unlike Mannix I am in favour of the project mainly because I use nothing but Public Transport to get around and I am a big fan of trams and trains.
I do admit that I am really fed up with the ongoing construction work that has greatly impacted my area for many years … my photographs will give you some idea as to what it has been like.
Mannix described the trams as monstrosities [meaning awful rather than big]. Many people may not be aware that the new trams will be extended versions of what are currently being used. The new trams will consist of nine sections rather five making them more like trains and there is a certain amount of logic to this because what is currently being built is a pre-metro.
A pre-metro is a tramway or light railway which includes segments built to rapid transit standards, generally as part of a process of conversion to a metro-standards railway usually by the construction of tunnels in the central city area. The concept of the systematic use of tunnels to carry tram lines under city centres was devised in Germany during the 1960s when, instead of building expensive entire metro systems immediately, the idea of building only the city centre tunnels at first was implemented. They could be used by trams in the short term, but the intention in the long run would still be the conversion to full underground-based rapid transit systems. The idea spread to other European countries in the 1970s, especially Belgium, where such systems were named premetros.[ Also portion of Vienna's U2 subway line (Rathaus-Museumsquartier) is a converted underground tramway line built in 1966.
I am not sure if the final system will actually include tunnels but there will be two sections Brides Glen to Charlemount and Broadstone to Broombridge that already meet light rail standards [these sections use dedicated track separated from any other types of traffic]. I am not 100% sure about the section between Sandyford and Charlemont.

The constructionwork on our house will be delayed for yet another month V_V I will be back in business end of january. In the mean time I decided to force myself to spend more time on the dolls and taking pictures! It's not their fault we are busy, right? :P
Gaia got a nice portrait wich we won with a Halloween picture contest a few months earlier.

I could be wrong but this is/was locally known as the Long Stone. If you search for the “Long Stone” in Google it is most likely that you will find information relating to a local pub rather than this sculpture
The Steine structure was erected in 1986 and was sculpted by Cliodhna Cussen. It was removed for a few years because of construction works associated with the new Luas cross-city tram service. The original installation included a granite inscribed plaque and a bronze plaque on a circular shaft set into granite setts arranged in eight circular bands around the principal granite shaft. The last time I photographed this the bronze plate was missing but the granite setts are still missing.
The stone is erected on a site near which stood a famous Long Stone or Steine / Steyne standing 12-14 feet high and erected by the Viking inhabitants of Dublin in the 10th or 11th centuries.
The River Liffey was much broader then and the stone actually stood close to the shoreline and perhaps marked a landing place.
The 3.35m high granite shaft is carved with two faces, one of which represents Ivor the first Viking King of Dublin who ruled in the 9th century. The other face is that of a nun and commemorates the convent of St. Mary Hogges, which stood nearby in the middle ages.

In 2017 there will be a new tram service which will have two stops very close to my home. One will be on Lower Domnick Street and the other just in front of the Bus Depot in Broadstone. Of the two the one at Broadstone should be of greatest interest to me as it will only a two or three minute walk [assuming that I can go through Kings Inns].
Connection of the new Granegegorman campus on the new line is very important, and there will be in excess of 20,000 students using the service.
The old railway line that ran through Dublin city included a stop at Broadstone and at Harcourt St. The latter line was preserved over the years after being closed down in the 1950s, which made it available for the RPA to use during the green Luas line construction. A similar scenario will occur with the Broadstone facilities near Constitution Hill.
In the city centre, trams are planned to run on street, but starting from the north west of the inner-city trams will run in a trench and under roads on the disused Broombridge railway alignment.
The plan includes pedestrian access and lifts from Irish Rail’s Broombridge Station to the Luas stop beside it, and vehicle access from Broombridge Road to the stations, including a set down area for buses, taxis and car, as well as bicycle parking.
At Broadstone the relocation of the Dublin Bus and Bus Eireann bus depots was expected to be needed, although it is unclear if this is part of the current plan. At least some destruction of the depot building is planned.
A light railway depot to service and store trams is planned in the area beside Broombridge Station and the Royal Canal.
There is a Marian Statue located in front of the old station building but I have been unable to find out if it will remain at its current location.
Wuppertal-Elberfeld: The heart of the city is a mess... But only for a while. The major reconstruction work which is going on at the moment will reshape the the most central area of Wuppertal. The best thing is: No historic buildings have to be sacrifeced (since they are already gone).

everyone went home at the same time ... this in combination with constructionwork on the freeway .. that resulted in a lot of trafficjam today

There is an interesting gender division of labour in road construction. The men seem to do the skilled work with machinery and the young women seem to do the unskilled manual work. You can see them in the background here.
This set of photos was taken in April 2015 not 2011.
Today here comes a 2012 throwback photo on site in St.Petersburg. This time it was a large-scale redevelopment project for an old industrial area in the middle of a prestigious district of the city. It was very important to work with maximum accurancy because the demolition site was very close to city subway facilities. Nowadays instead of an old building here raised a 21 storey Gazprom tower.

The area around my apartment has been effectively a building site for three or four years and I am really pleased by the fact the majority of projects will be completed by the end of this year.
The major project with the biggest impact on my living environment is the Luas Cross City project but the good news for me is that the working date for opening the new route to passengers is December 9th/10th. Of course I do not know if the service it self will have unexpected negative social impacts but I am hoping that if there are any they will be more than compensated for by the positives. It would appear that property prices are increasing but as I do not wish to move this is not really relevant to me [except for an increase in property tax]
There will be two tram stops on O’Connell Street.
The GPO Stop will be located within the median of O’Connell Street Lower, north of Middle Abbey Street and will be conveniently located to provide interchange with the Luas Red Line at the Abbey Street stop. This is an important description because it contains a bit of information that might surprise some people. The common belief is that the purpose of the Cross-City was to connect the Red Line and the Green Line services but this is not actually true from a service point of view because users will need to interchange between the lines near the GPO
