Save No. 16 Moore Street
12 Dec 2006 - Dominic Dunne
The Save 16 Moore Street Committee welcome the Taoiseachs announcement that
No. 16 Moore Street is to be designated a National Monument. After a hard
fought five year campaign, the committee are pleased that he has acceded to
their wishes in declaring the Moore Street /O'Connell Street area a 1916
quarter.
James Connolly-Heron, committee member and great grandson of the
1916 leader said " It is now imperative that the buildings on Moore Street
are secured and protected. Given the deplorable state they have been allowed
to get into, their future is still at risk unless conservation work begins
immediately". He added "For all sorts of reasons, social, historical and
cultural the Moore Street area should be developed sensitively and subtlety
to preserve and sustain its special character".
