WOW! The new place is amazing. What's happened with the old Culturlann in Monkstown?

Is this not the place in Dublin near North Strand, over which there was a wee bit of a hoo-ha a couple years ago?

Hoo-ha alright, dare say there's still a lot of resentment around that debacle.

I realised I'd stuck my oar in years ago re the takeover of the premises; never forget the ability of the stupid to make fools of themselves.
And is the situation any better, or are the original progenitors of the premises still the dispossessed ?
