Sir, – Further to Frank McDonald’s report (Front Page, July 2nd), how about turning it into a permanent squat for the Occupy Dame Street movement? With one proviso: before taking up occupancy in the rent-free edifice,the group must first have paid the contentious €100 household charge. – Yours, etc,
Sir, – What a wonderful idea to turn the Central Bank building into a library. My late husband, Sam Stephenson, would be so pleased! Sam’s father, Patrick Stephenson, was the Dublin City Librarian for many years. And Sam, of course, loved books and was an avid reader. It would be a perfect fit to open up this iconic building to be enjoyed by all. – Yours, etc,
