Cllr. O’Flynn welcomed the development saying; “One of the buildings had been the home for many years of the Butter Exchange Band and it is wonderful to see the City Council, having acquired these buildings last year are now using them for the betterment of the Local Community in Shandon.”
Cllr. O’Flynn continued; “The project will not only provide permanent homes for the Butter Exchange Band and the Girl Guides but it will rid the area of two derelict sites and replace them with well designed new buildings.”
The overall cost is estimated to be in the region of €350,000 and will be funded out of profits made from the sale of Navigation House at Albert Quay.
