You heard it here first.

Possibly correct as info I have is simply that Decathlon's first store will be in Carrickmines - possibly its something like what power city did and they will build a standalone store.

A new gardening supply store is apparently opening in Blackrock Shopping Centre soon. It's at the old Ken's newsagents.

The former Twyford Motors site (previously a Statoil filling station) on Deansgrange Road has recently been filled up with secondhand cars. Someone then resurfaced the space in front of the premises next door and that is also now crammed with secondhand cars but as of yet, there's no signage to indicate who will be operating the business.

It's the two premises shown in this Streetview ..... They are related in the sense that in the 1990s the premises on the left was the Irish headquarters of a Russian oil company called Conoco which sold motor fuels retail under the brand name 'Jet', the filling station next door was one of theirs before the Irish business was bought by Statoil.

Cheers, I'd probably have spotted that if I was pulling up to visit the Get Fresh fruit & veg. shop opposite but as it has now closed, I'm only ever passing in the car and didn't notice they were all Hyundais.

Someone locally told a few weeks back that one of the local car retailers had bought the site which would fit with the above. I recall some entry in the Local Area Plan that said the last thing the area needed was more car retail space so I hope that won't be a feature of the long term development of the site. Would be surprised if it was in fairness.

+1 with the old Grange Motors premises (three showrooms) now split into Mooney Hyundai, Frank Keane VW and a TBA operator in the old Merc. showroom plus Windsor Nissan down the road, there's probably enough car retailing going on in the area.

Planning was recently granted to demolish/rebuild the Tara Towers Hotel, it'll be replaced by a 4* Dalata Hotel and private apartments. Construction is starting this year.

It's not a burrito place it's a sushi/bento place called Fuji. Looks like it'll operate the upstairs.

I thought it said burrito bar but obviously not.

Dun Laoghaire market at the People's Park has lost Drumeel Farm's Pat Cremin. No more muesli, nuts, spices or seeds.

As it happens, i passed a currently vacant shop on Bray Main Street this weekend that had a sign in the window about a new fish shop on the way. Its beside the entrance to the council offices/Mermaid Theatre.

Ah no! Hadn't heard that. Used to love taking the little one down for a look at the seals and to pick some fresh fish in the finer weather. Boo!

By the way, does anyone know what's going to become of the former Tramyard Cafe and Ulster Bank in Dalkey?

What I can assume is a new garden centre appears to opening at the back of the former Sextons premises in Cornelscourt.

Hamleys Dundrum is closing down, as is Urban Outfitters, both in next few days. Physical retail outlets are suffering badly.
I hear Ely is taking the unit after Hamleys.

Planning granted for the redevelopment of the Union Cafe site (formerly Kielys) in Mount Merrion. Plans include "50 apartments over four storeys and a three-storey pub/restaurant". No indication when the current cafe will close.

Perhaps it might an alternative location if Falling and Byrne get refused planning permission.

They'd have to apply for change of use planning which would be more difficult than what is being applied for currently.

The proposed fallon and Byrne unit already has planning for restaurant and bar use, they want to extend the size and add in food retail - can't see it being refused.
