Sir, - Christopher Sands (February 10th) jogged my memory with reference to Archer's Garage in Sandwith St. Shortly after the demolition of this List 1 building, I received a copy of a press release dated June 23rd, 1999, issued on behalf of Dublin Corporation and Sherborough Securities Ltd, which stated inter alia that the latter had signed a legal agreement with the former "unconditionally to re-instate the premises to its former condition, with work to commence as soon as possible, but at the latest by September 1st, 1999. They have also agreed that the re-instatement will be completed within one year of commencement of works".
The re-instatement should therefore have been completed six months ago, yet nothing appears to have been done. Like Mr Sands, I too would be interested in hearing what is to be the fate of this building. - Yours, etc.,
Seamus Kelly, Glasnevin, Dublin 11.
