The Great Pyramid of Giza, the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, the Statue of Zeus at Olympia – these are just some of the seven wonders of the world that wouldn’t be there if it weren’t for architecture.
On a daily basis, everything we see around us – like the houses we live in and the streets we walk on every day – are all here thanks to architects’ work.
But how challenging is it to be an architect in Ireland? That’s exactly what Bobby talked about on this week’s Industry Review.

EXCELLENT DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
ERA Downey McCarthy are delighted to present to the market this unique development opportunity with full planning permission granted for 9 houses, 2 apartments and Commercial Unit in Knockraha. (Planning Ref no. 17/6606)
Knockraha is a small village located approx. 16km to the North East of Cork City. The area has seen new housing developments and detached houses being built over the past few years. Knockraha is located close to Glanmire and easily accessible to the Cork – Dublin Motorway, Carrigtwohill and Little Island.
