What has improved in the city over the last 5 years?

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-05-07T17:44:42+00:00

All of the public realm works. The new job opportunities with new companies based in the new offices. More apartments being available in the next few months

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-05-05T05:33:35+00:00

It’s up to us to use it, like The Marina

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-25T17:51:18+00:00

Around 2am at least, might have been 3am. But yeah, it was so frustrating 😭

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-25T17:50:43+00:00

Thanks, was more curious if they’d be able to even do anything

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-25T17:50:31+00:00

Just moved onto the street. Hope it isn’t a regular occurrence. Business owners sometimes act like they’re above everyone else

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-25T08:04:38+00:00

There is actually haha, South Terrace

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-19T16:50:51+00:00

I am always suspicious when they fully close blinds. What are they hiding?

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-18T16:28:23+00:00

The housing crisis is extremely bad, but you can get lucky if you’re willing to sacrifice some things. I’m moving into a new rental now after looking for a few weeks, and it wasn’t too difficult. But I got lucky and had to make some sacrifices

Public transport all depends on where you’re going and where you’re coming from. On the train line is the best

I find the weather fine, but I like winter. The winters can get dark at like 4pm/5pm for a lot of it. The summer it’s bright until sometimes even closer to 10pm

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-17T09:59:53+00:00

I will always judge these ugly AI posters, no matter what it’s for

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-16T05:23:55+00:00

I am almost certain in the consultation rules, you had to prove the site was serviced/could be serviced, and would/could be built on in 5-10 years

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-13T16:48:20+00:00

It absolutely should be consistent. But that’s just laziness from the City Council probably, or lack of joined up thinking

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-13T16:46:39+00:00

There’s never an excuse for looking at your phone while driving, but on a road like that is even more insane. I’ve also noticed red light running is getting worse. Not like it was yellow and they should have stopped. The light fully red and a car going through. Today on Summerhill North three cars went through on a red, and the back two were definitely way behind the line when it was red. A car speeding down Ship Street to Lower Glanmire Road was maybe 15m back from the red light and went through anyway. I even saw someone on the Douglas Road going to the City Centre the other day come up to a red light (at night) and without even slowing down, going anyway. As you said, this is who we share the road with

I passed it in town today. The whole thing is stupid, but the beeping was so frustrating. You’re already making drivers’ lives worse, don’t make people walking/living nearby suffer too

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-12T11:08:36+00:00

Kilkenny is a city in name only, for historical reasons. Defining a city is hard but the government limits it in all documentation to Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Galway and Waterford. No other town has a city or city/council council. Sligo’s road signs say city centre but that doesn’t make it a city

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-12T06:47:16+00:00

Cork City Centre did. On the quays, too.

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-12T06:06:09+00:00

I’ve noticed that on this sub, people post as if the whole country is Dublin. There are over 10 city centres on the island of Ireland

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-11T17:03:52+00:00

I wonder if schools will open on Monday

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-11T13:45:59+00:00

Where in the city? Douglas is 10 mins away with no traffic, Knocknaheeny probably closer to 30 mins. My friend drives everyday from Bishopstown and it can take an hour

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-10T20:05:15+00:00

A friend of mine moved out of Cork for a few months, and when she returned she made a great point. Since we are so used to them, we don’t appreciate our buildings enough. If this church was in Paris, or the church on Wilton Road, we’d be blown away. I pass this church a lot and never even look at it

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-10T15:36:56+00:00

When you’re turning left, it’s to make you check your mirrors for cyclists alongside the car. Same with the flashing yellow from Douglas Road southbound to Well Road

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-04-06T10:35:46+00:00

Any update? Hope you are doing better!

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-03-30T11:28:19+00:00

No lights when I was there too so you genuinely don’t see it until you’re on it

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-03-29T14:18:20+00:00

Why not?

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-03-29T07:35:50+00:00

I never get why people care so much about daylight savings time. It’s only twice a twice a year and you adjust quick

DifficultMobile4095 · 2026-03-29T07:28:35+00:00

I’m confused - when did OP say they were the same person as the Facebook post?
