Hello,

I thought that this might be of interest to some of you, so here it is:

http://dennismcnulty.com/afterthoughts.html

It's a day of talks/discussions relating to city stuff. It's happening next Saturday (March 1st). It's free but you have to book. More details at the link above.

Sounds deadly. When was the 'The Big Bank' documentary made? Any other screenings?

Shite i'm working that day, but it's for the construction industry so there's a healthy dose of irony for me to ponder

The newspaper coverage of the film when it was screened in the Irish Life Mall in 1980 says

"the film shows the construction of the new bank from a water filled hole in the ground in 1972 to the day when the bank's staff took over in 1979.

It's an industrial film, so it concentrates on the construction process, which was innovative at the time. The floors are suspended from the top of the building and the film shows the floors being jacked into place from the plaza below.

I could go on, but you're probably asleep already ...

No other screenings on Saturday.

Thanks tommy. That would be cool.

I was over at the back of tcd yesterday, surrounded by guards in fluoro jackets. Thought it was some kind of bizarre training exercise until I heard the news.

The reaction was a bit ott!

The apex of the shiny new copper roof on the naughton institute blew off in the (not very high IMO)wind. load of copper cladding damaged a parked car and the corpo declared it a disaster area. Picture in the metro. Embarrassed architect and subby no doubt on the scene pullin' a reddner as I type..
