The building formerly known as Dunnes Stores on Kyrls Quay, Cork City is such a wasted opportunity Such a large space surely it's ideal for a community, creative, cultural space, anything instead of watching it slowly decay #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland

Frank O'Connor And these 5 in the hills of Donegal. The likes of, are everywhere. This is all going to get a lot worse & quickly. anois Rory Hearne Eoin Ó Broin #DerelictIreland #HousingCrisis x.com/GerryCrilly/st…

Solidarity matters Well done everyone 👏

Dereliction is vandalism that is costing lives and traumatising generations All state enabled #DerelictIreland

Success of Croí Cónaithe scheme aimed at helping people to renovate #DerelictIreland homes is in jeopardy because grant approvals are taking so long builders will not take on these jobs. Cork County Council members are to write to Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage seeking amendments shorturl.at/LRPG2

We need more homes.... mmmmm .. A crazy thought .. how about all the vacant properties dotted across the city & county? #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland "House prices in Cork jump by 9.1% as Central Bank warns that we need more homes - and fast" corkbeo.ie/news/local-new…

This is positive, indicating alternative to our current housing emergency is possible Well done Eoin Ó Broin Sinn Féin for taking time to produce these concrete housing proposals in advance of election Well done TortoiseShack for sharing & for shout out for #DerelictIreland

Niche but bear with me — Right now, #CorkCC gives property owners 50%-off on commercial rates when a property is vacant. 🤯 A public consultation is now open on whether this should change. It's easy: Just mail [email protected] before Monday, 30 September with your views.

5:1 A Local Authortiy has to approve 5 homes just to get 1 built When councils budgets are so tight why are they doing so much work for so little return?

Every win for CPO is a nail in the coffin of #DerelictIreland CPO under the Derelict Sites Act has a high success rate All councils should be using it more to send a strong message to owners that dereliciton is no longer tolerated

Surely human life comes over property hoarding? Why should anyone be able to sit on empty homes while others struggle on our streets We need "use it or lose it" policy And we need to allow a custodian form of squatting to ensure everyone has a home #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland

#VacantIreland is incentivesed with Business Rates discounts Leading to crazy vacancy rates - highest ever Yet commerical rents / property prices aren't dropping? The Market of Supply & Demand is skeward by the ability of owners to hoard as long as they want #DerelictIreland

19 years later & these 20 homes are still f*cking empty N woods, Cork County Council & the government should be ashamed If ever there was a case for use it or lose it this is it #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland

Week 122 today of my weekly housing crisis protest. The streets around the Dáil were all closed so I went to the entrance of Stephen's Green to do my protest. Thanks very much to Margaret O'Regan for joining me and for taking this photo. #everyoneshouldhaveahome

Something not quite right with the balance of this new hotel but good to see it back in use, it's been far too long Camden Quay, Cork City, Ireland #DerelictIreland #RestPlayWork

Scale of #DerelictIreland has been laid bare with commercial vacancy rates as high as one in three units in worst-hit areas as closure of pubs & shops continues in small towns, according to latest report from GeoDirectory. Donegal has a rate of 19.4%. shorturl.at/B2DT4

#DerelictIreland campaign was started by Jude Sherry and Frank O'Connor from anois and our project has demonstrated what can happen when the community and the local authority tackle the issue head on. shorturl.at/11qbg
