A TWO-STOREY Irish Jewish Museum and reinstated synagogue has been granted planning permission in Portobello, Dublin.
An Bord Pleanála decided by a majority of five to three to grant permission generally, with a number of revised conditions.
The Bord decided that the proposed development would not seriously injure the visual or residential amenities of the area of property in the vicinity, it would not be prejudicial to public health or pose a risk to flooding.
It also said it would be acceptable in terms of traffic safety and convenience.

The conditions include that a full architectural survey of the exteriors and the interiors of the buildings proposed for demolition on the site be carried out; that the height of the plant zone not exceed a certain height; and that the noise level during development not exceed a certain level.
The Bord also asked that prior to the opening of the museum, the applicant give a mobility management plan to the Bord that will include measures to encourage the use of sustainable modes of transport to the location.
There had been some opposition from locals to the demolition of numbers 3 – 7 on Walworth Road in Portobello and the construction of the museum.

“almost definitely could be potentially the whale that might have been in either Dublin or Liverpool port, while also feeding potentially most definitely feeding on fish, just before it was more than likely certainly murdered by climate change or potentially other causes, that maybe but definitely one of a long list of ways it could have died” classic garbish titles…
@Cryptoalcho: Definately, maybe…
@GerryCummins: .

More often than not when you find a mammal out of its comfort zone the mammal is in trouble.
Anybody find my bicycle whale on Dollyier?
He must have been sick. Poor thing.

In terms of whales.
A solo whale found out of its normal surroundings usually means that it is in trouble.
Either lost from its pod or lost on its own.
The next time you see any mammal in a position that you don’t expect it to be in presume it is in trouble big trouble.
@Linus Robin: Eamonn Ryan in Dáil Éireann, for example.
@Linus Robin: you ok?
@SFNutters: I’m fine thank you.
I realize that some of my post makes little or no sense.
I will blame that on 3 people calling to my house mid post and not proof reading.
Soz.
Almost definitely?
if not attended to quickly dead beached whales have been known to explode due to the build up of gasses if the whale is not gutted quickly .If your worrying about the smell now better cover your noses.
I’d say it died because of the big gapping hole in the end of it.
@Mumpsimus: that never killed your mother?
Liffey river just doesn’t sound right
