The Eyesores Thread

Whereabouts in letterkenny are those 2, trying to work out what they knocked down to make them

First one is just up off the main street. Turn right at the old courthouse and it’s at the bottom of that road.

Second one is at the main roundabout by bus station and shopping centre.

I know that road well, I’d walk it on the way home from the grill. Used to be a chipper at the bottom of the road where you’d get a student meal of a burger, chips and a can for £2

Never really went on the road parallel to port road that the other one is on, was very rundown IIRC

Built up a bit now and looks well.

The modern buildings and retail outlets at the bottom of town are shocking.

Were you living up here?

Yep. I did a year in the IT in 92, was living up windy hall beyond sliabh sneacht.

Spent more time in Nero’s and the grill than lectures

Right walk home every evening up that slope.

Not fun in the winter.

Great craic to cycle down

Yup. Pat’s Pizza has a bigger outlet up the Mountain Top now too.

The Cottage is still the best pub in town.

And the ‘redeveloped Casement Park’ still gets included in discussion for every large sporting event that Ireland ever glances her eye over at
