Wednesday 26 August, 6.00-8.00pm, Red Room, Richview
On Hold are sharing the research undertaken by them in a Red Room session.
This promises to be an interesting evening, as the group have been questioning Dublin's approach to property and development, and topics covered on the night will range from NAMA to retro-fitting. They have a blog for further information.
Each participant will present their research and take questions from the floor.
All are welcome!!
(and don't forget to come along to the soundbox gig in the twisted pepper afterwards!)

The Workshop
A deflated property market along with incoherent development and planning decisions in Dublin and the Greater Dublin Area have created a patchwork of vacant, unfinished and defunct urban and suburban fragments, a city ON HOLD. The workshop promotes a multidisciplinary approach to the various challenges and opportunities of these fragments and intends to find strategies between shrinking and growing that involve the various stakeholders and positively influence and modify the future development of a city on hold.
