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
I learned that the garden is being transformed in a major way for a special event taking place next month. A dance floor is being built over the pool! (Or maybe the guard was pulling my leg, but it does look like they are building a floor over the pool.)

Paddington Square, designed by world-renowned architect Renzo Piano, will incorporate 360,000 sq ft of prime office space, 75,220 sq ft of world-class retail and dining space, a 13,650 sq ft rooftop restaurant and a new 1.35 acre public square. The development will also deliver a much needed £65m investment into London’s transport infrastructure that will provide a new Bakerloo Line ticket hall in Paddington Station.

This brave person has decided that a pedestrain diversion does not apply to cyclists and has wriggled past the closure at the other end.

Bauarbeiten am S-Bhf. Yorckstraße (Großgörschenstraße) - S1 - für den Austauschen der alten Brücken des Gleises Richtung Wannsee / Potsdam finden bereits seit vielen Monaten statt. Vor ein paar Monaten wurde endlich ein Baustellenschild aufgestellt und ein Ende der Bauarbeiten tatsächlich für den 20.12.2014 (!) angekündigt. Lassen wir uns überraschen mit wie viel Verspätung dieses Bauprojekt erledigt wird.

Except for a couple of other old relicts n Zurich V, these are survivors of another time. A lot of the area of Zurich West is being demolished and new, and mostly enormous buildings are built in place.. I have many images showing the contrast. For this time, the people living here have been resisting demolishment. I do not know how long they will be successful. Will document changes, if I know about it.
Nederland, Noord-Holland, Gemeente Schoorl, 11-12-2013; Camperduin, Hondsbossche en Pettemer Zeewering gezien naar het noorden, Petten en de duinen aan de horizon. Rechts van de zeedijk de Vereenigde Harger- en Pettemerpolder met 'De Putten' (ontstaan in het verleden door het uitgegraven grond om de zeewering te verstevigen). De dijk is aangelegd als zeewering nadat de oorsrponkelijke duinen weggeslagen waren. Door erosie kalven de duinen langs de kust steeds verder af, de dijk steekt daardoor steeds meer uit in zee.
Hondsbossche and Pettemer seawall seen to the north, Petten and the dunes on the horizon. Right side of the seawall and the United Harger Pettemer Polder with 'The Wells' (created in the past by using soil for strengthening the seawall). The dike was built as a seawall after the primal dunes were washed away. Because of erosion the dunes decrease in size, therefore the sewall sticks more and more out into the sea.

The Indonesian Tsunami was tragic and devastating for the people of Indonesia. Hundreds of thousands of people were killed and millions were left homeless.
Minhaj Welfare Foundation (MWF) offered their services and facilities and helped with the construction of new buildings as well as providing water, food, clothes and shelter for those who lost everything.
