Summarization
The discussion in the tweets discusses the reconstruction of the Notre Dame Cathedral and how different levels of bureaucracy and regulations can affect it. It also compares the difference between the state of the city and its buildings in 1901 versus 2023. The tweets mention the trauma of colonialism, war of independence, and civil war have resulted in an appreciation for anything American instead of Irish. Reconstruction should focus on small details such as shop signage, awnings, etc., and traditional signwriting should be approved. Lastly, they agree that someone needs to take charge and rejuvenate the city in a modern and sympathetic way.

1626803272634757121 | If any US DOT was put in charge of the Notre Dame Cathedral reconstruction. (@RobCross247) https://t.co/nlQBdmrcnC | 262 |
1624901729434181633 | Tomorrow is the last day to comment on this application. The proposed development will knock down an building from the ~1850s and damage the architectural heritage of Richmond Street South. @RobCross247 @stephen_coyne https://t.co/clgCBOl8tV | 3 |
1625097932780314629 | @RobCross247 Love this. Keep up the great work, such nice insights | 1 |
1627746805302628367 | @RobCross247 You didn't by any chance use #OpenStreetMap data for this? I notice a building that is still marked as vacant on High Street, bc I forgot to update it. @osm_ie. If you did, I'd appreciate an attribution, bc I put a lot of work into the survey. | 1 |
1627358270464589825 | @RobCross247 @MickODeaArtist Shop signage is a dying art. It's sad to see all the crappy plastic stick on ones. They're grim. | 1 |
1626683593618608144 | @RobCross247 @RogerFarnworth @cavleitrailway my Dad used to travel on that back to his home in Arigna during the 40s war years. Fuelnsuplies were low so passengers would often get off train to collect firewood .. | 1 |
1626970341733007361 | @the_transit_guy @RobCross247 Nice one. Although, for US standards this would still be great.... They would probably have levelled all the city blocks around it to create parking lots. | 1 |
1626023888852230145 | @RobCross247 @theskibeagle Imagine this… Galway to Dublin in just over 30 mins.. https://t.co/J9jInAh9ut | 1 |
1627797010341416960 | @roboflaneur @RobCross247 This is very true. No accountability in councils and they are free to make the same mistakes over and over and over again. Needs a performance culture like in private sector. Hire and fire. | 0 |
1625957659118649344 | @RobCross247 @EamonRyan eh...so he's going to dig up all the new Walk ways. FM is there anyone with a clue in power..It's like the utility companies running to be first to dig up a new road and refill it with s***e. | 0 |

1626805929114013699 | @the_transit_guy @RobCross247 Don't you know free parking is one of the 10 commandments? | 37 |
1627342836722016256 | @RobCross247 I think the trauma of colonialism, the war of independence and the civil war resulted in a repugnance for anything tainted as British accompanied by an over appreciation of anything American. We lacked the confidence to recognise and appreciate what was Irish. | 22 |
1627318045655048192 | @RobCross247 Simple things like awnings, facades, street furniture, pavements and road surfaces make such a difference. We need to bring that stuff back. | 18 |

1627367174514900992 | @RobCross247 We left the civil servants run @DubCityCouncil we need a directly elected mayor with executive powers to run the city. | 10 |
1627359228569460737 | @RobCross247 I'd say you could find similar examples in lots of cities. Even though the shops, clothes and means of transport looked a lot nicer 100 years ago, this was also a time of massive malnutrition, infant mortality and discrimination. | 9 |
1625066012696616962 | @BUnicycling @noonan_malcolm @NationalMons It would be superb to see all the vacant homes on this map, to link up heritage councils' non-delivery on town regeneration to the housing opportunity in towns, given Town centre first & county plans don't make it visual or scalable. @RobCross247 does good work on this. | 9 |
