Up until the beginning of the 20th Century the solution for the public space in almost every city in the world consisted in the positioning of specifically codified elements on a well paved base. For example, the siting of pieces of sculpture with a view to centrality or to certain axes was regarded as resolving all of the problems of the urban space: its monumentality, its identity and its representative status in the city. Since that time the codes and the symbols have changed.

The main street in the city centre. It has hundreds of shops, many of the big chain retail outlets. There are a number of very good department stores there. Also you will often find street entertainment, such as music, dancing, art work displays. Additonally, around Christmas time, the street looks incredibly festive. Worth checking out!

You will likely find yourself on this street whether you mean to or not when you visit Cork . The street has great shopping, and is located near the main bus terminal. There are lots of great restaurants off of the side roads too, and leading up to St. Patrick’s Day this street gets pretty festive!
