    Versus what was proposed in 2010 there will be more retail\amenity space and less allotted to apartments... Will be interested to see who is lined up as anchor for the food store...

    Brilliant news.

    The old centre was tired and worn out and long past its replacement date

    yea, it really looks like some gloomy place in eastern Europe :-)

    Where is Bayside Shopping Centre? Is it the one with the Eurospar and a church in the car park?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭BowWow


    Hopefully the new centre will have a Starbucks or Insomnia in it :D

    Yes, and part of the apartment blocks will be also demolished.

    Pity the whole site is not knockable


  • Registered Users Posts: 219 ✭✭PlayByTheRules


    Any updates?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭BowWow


    Hoardings going up around a large part of the car park for a builder's compound. Staff in shops saying construction is starting on an Aldi - happy days if correct.

    I wish they'd do the same to Edenmore "shopping centre", it's hideous, belongs in the past

    The pub is never reopening (licence transferred out) and the old Iceland unit is still empty I think. Has the doctors surgery moved out? Leaves a very extensive section that could be removed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 489 ✭✭subpar


    If ALDI are opening what happens to Eurospar

    Nothing can be as bad as the eyesore that masquerades as the Crumlin shopping centre

    Great news. Hopefully they tidy up the appearance of those apartments above the stores too. I wonder what state those apartments are in? They look bleak from the outside.

    ballymun? donaghmede and northside arent much better either


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 67,523 Mod ✭✭✭✭L1011


    Northside has had a full internal and external refit in the past 3 years.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,960 ✭✭✭Dr Crayfish


    Northside actually looks good these days, a far cry from the 90s with aul ones walking around the place smoking etc, lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 219 ✭✭PlayByTheRules


    Anybody know what store is going in at Bayside when complete? The area will look so much better with this site cleaned up and redeveloped.

    I could swear I saw Aldi mentioned somewhere, but I can't remember where I saw it.

    Pretty sure EuroSpar is moving out for the year, and then move back in to the new larger premises after construction is finished. Post office likewise.


  • Registered Users Posts: 126 ✭✭marvin42


    Dont think Eurospar will be back, as they closed from one day to the other without any "thank you for your service and looking forward to see you in our new shop in ......."
    In fact, it seems even the staff was only informed about the closure last minute.
    Local rumor (as already said) is ALDI.

    so who is actually operating the tempory shop? the management company?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 Clarec1980


    As far as I know eurospar run the temporary shop.
    I also heard that it's not Aldi going in due to an issue with no underground car park. But this could be just bayside gossip.


  • Registered Users Posts: 441 ✭✭Alicano


    Great to see some redevelopment happening. Long time coming. They allowed that whole site and car park fall into ruin so well played by those involved.
    Please tell me something is being done with the decrepit squash and leisure centre?? Great place in the 80's. But fallen to ruin since.
    #Baysidepride :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 126 ✭✭marvin42


    yes, the squash center is also to be demolished, as far as i know in phase 2 of the redevelopment of the shopping center. All in all it is supposed to take three years to complete all the redevelopment. The Old SPAR/Centra was demolished this week.
