Ad this is the crux of what's wrong with CIE. Huge site, city centre capacity has been dwindling for years and they knew it, yet flogged a site which had 100% flexibility to locate a station anywhere on that site to TH for apartments. That's NOT what a good public transport operator does, that's what CIE Property does.
The Station should have been further south, right down to the river to allow people a fast walk across the new Liffey bridges to the southside. Being close to O'Connell St. should never have been the goal as it's not the primary destination.
