Cork's crumbling block puts one over on Dublin

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2001 / October 14 2001: Cork's crumbling block puts one over on Dublin

There is one great stinger of a revelation for the surroundings-conscious Dubliner. Tell them the crimpy-topped Liberty Hall is not in fact Ireland's tallest building. Sting them even more by announcing that the real title holder stands far higher in Cork. It's a sure-fire bet winner: Cork folk have always been aware of their County Hall's status, but most Dublinerss don't even know it's there.
