THE OPEN Newsroom is brought to you by The Good Information Project.
This is a new initiative launched by the Journal to open a dialogue with our audience around big issues – we want to find out what questions you’d like answered and hopefully equip you with the skills to seek out Good Information.
This month we are looking at the idea of a united Island, asking the big question – what could a shared island look like?
The time seems right to discuss these issues as unionists raise fears over the border and Brexit, Michael Martin’s €500million Shared Island Unit works to find new cross-border ideas and Sinn Fein’s friends in the US are placing ads in papers saying a United Ireland is nearly here.
This article is part of The Good Information Project, a new initiative from The Journal to help create greater understanding of big issues we face. This month we are focussing on the question ‘What could a shared island look like?’.

A soaring 73 metres ?…am sure is hitting all the news wires in dubai, shanghai and new York
Why hasn’t shyscrapper-esc buildings ever been built in Dublin? Is there a maximum height thing in place or are we just not arsed? Serious question
Stupid agencies like bord plonker and an taisch who think they live in a private museum where everything must always stay the same….that combined with totally lack of imagination and skill of city planers
Yes the SDZ (strategic development zone) for the docklands has a limit of 30m I believe.
Could someone enlighten me, and before you do, don’t start getting all stroppy with me, it’s only a question. ‘How many of these homeless children and their families are Irish born and bred? I was trying to source the percentage of Irish to Immigrant homeless but keep getting Nada, Zilch, Bo-Diddlies.
Why does it matter???
Because my countries citizens mean more to me than others, Paul. Is that OK? Do you know how many or don’t you? Simple question.
The Homeless may just Die on the Streets No Help No Caring No Government No one cares
The capitals on every letter, why hun?
I know working at night you very rarely see forgieners on the Streets. Apart from the Roma’s
Plenty of home grown kn*kers
But will it ever be Dublin’s tallest building? I thought capital dock is going to be 79m tall and it’s already under construction
Ithought there was a bye law which restricts building to, or below, the height of Liberty Hall
The docklands were designated a special planning zone
Not as big as da wan in Cork! Gwan ked.
have your say
