What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

The 1916 Moore Street Battlefield site in Dublin is currently threatened with demolition by London-based developer Hammerson. The Moore Street Preservation Trust has launched a campaign calling on the Irish government to bring the site into public ownership and establish a 1916 historical Cultural Quarter. The Trust plans to seek a judicial review of the Hammerson plan early next year. Separately, a Green Party Councillor argued that Dublin could implement a tourist tax to raise funds for city upkeep and public events.
