#DunLaoghaire - The public consultation on the proposed redevelopment of the old Victorian baths in Dun Laoghaire opened today (Monday 20 April).
As previously reported on Afloat.ie, last month the €2.5 million project was given the green light by the Department of the Environment.
The revised plans will see the baths – last used 20 years ago as the Rainbow Rapids – developed into artists' studios with a gallery and café space.
Among other changes, the old saltwater pool space will be filled in to create a green space between the People's Park and the East Pier.
The public consultation is open for submissions till 5 June 2015. Full details of the plans and all relevant consultation documents are available HERE.
The local 'Save our Seafront' campaign organisation has arranged a public meeting to discusss the new plans for the baths site and the nearby harbour on Thursday, April 30th at 7.30pm in the Kingston hotel.
