Nestled in Lough Mahon, it boasts uninterrupted sea views in a location second to none. The picturesque Jacob’s Island has, as its boundaries, the River Lee on its eastern side and the Douglas Estuary on its southern side. Douglas Estuary comprising of 2% of the entire harbour, holds circa 28% of the birds making it the second most important habitat for birdlife in Cork Harbour. Lying within the city boundary with extensive shore line, yet immediately adjacent to the unfolding Mahon Point, Cork’s newest and largest shopping complex with some of the best Irish, UK and international high street names together with pubs, restaurants and cinema. In addition to the spectacular sea views the development will include trim trail, mature parkland, hotel and leisure complex. ….How life just got easier JACOB’S ISLAND INSPIRING... jacobs_island_f.qxd 4/21/04 11:34 AM Page 5 IMAGINE... An exciting new concept has come into being, Jacob’s Island, a brand new apartment location. Taking city living to a new level, the large apartment homes are set in landscaped gardens enjoying sea views and leisure facilities.

  • Cork City Development Plan 2022-2028
    “Whenever and wherever societies have flourished and prospered rather than stagnated and decayed, creative and workable cities have been at the core of the phenomenon” Jane Jacobs Cork Chamber Submission to the Cork City Development Plan Initial Public Consultation July 21st 2020 1 Prologue “…I watch the other rituals of morning: Mr. Halpert unlocking the laundry's handcart from its mooring to a cellar door, Joe Cornacchia's son-in-law stacking out the empty crates from the delicatessen, the barber bringing out his sidewalk folding chair, Mr. Goldstein arranging the coils of wire which proclaim the hardware store is open, the wife of the tenement's superintendent depositing her chunky three-year-old with a toy mandolin on the stoop, the vantage point from which he is learning the English his mother cannot speak. Now the primary children, heading for St Luke's, dribble through to the south; the children for St. Veronica's cross, heading to the west, and the children for P.S. 41, heading toward the east. Two new entrances are being made from the wings: well dressed and even elegant women and men with brief cases emerge from doorways and side streets. Most of these are heading for the bus and subways, but some hover on the curbs, stopping taxis which have miraculously appeared at the right moment, for the taxis are part of a wider morning ritual: having dropped passengers from midtown to the downtown financial district, they are now bringing downtowners up to midtown. Simultaneously, numbers of women in housedresses have emerged and as they crisscross with one another they pause for quick conversations that sound with either laughter or joint indignation, never, it seems, anything between.

  • Crawford Art Gallery Cork Annual Report 2012
    CRAWFORD ART GALLERY CORK ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Preface A National Cultural Institution, the Crawford Art Gallery receives its annual grant-in-aid from the Department of Arts Heritage and the Gaeltacht. The introduction of sharing services, knowledge and expertise between the Crawford Art Gallery, National Gallery of Ireland and Irish Museum of Modern Art ushered in a new phase in the history of these three institutions. While working more closely with its sister institutions brought positive results and substantially increased the knowledge and experience available to inform decision-making, the Crawford Gallery continued its role as an independent art museum, exhibitions centre and centre for excellence in education. The unique identity of the Crawford has been retained and enhanced as the new working arrangements are developed, while the Gallery’s future development can now be planned within the national context of provision for the visual arts. To advance the Sharing Services initiative, regular meetings were held in 2012 between staff from the Crawford Gallery and colleagues from the National Gallery and IMMA. Seventeen staff from NGI, sixteen staff from IMMA and six staff from CAG participated in a process led by consultant Clare O’Meara, who prepared a report at the end of the year. Norma Cuddihy provided the Crawford Gallery lead in terms of admin and HR; Elena Rossi and Anne Boddaert worked on Collections, while Dawn Williams represented the Gallery in Public Affairs. Peter Murray worked on overall direction and digital strategies, while Catherine Nestor focused on Enterprise and financial management. Education is to be addressed in phase two of the process.
