Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I live in that estate and it is not a ghost estate. No part of either apartment blocks are unfinished. Also that wasteland is a development zone, plans are currently available at dlrcoco.ie
Well, on this morning's John Murray show, Radio 1, Serena Brabazon in the interview describes the adjacent estate as such.

I live in this area and saw these guys this morning. They planted trees in an area which floods in the winter and in an area which is about two metres deep with gravel. Also I don't think it is such a good idea to plant these trees in such dry weather when they are going to need to be watered over the coming days; I don't think these guys are going to come out to do so without any cameras present. Of the 200 trees planted they will be lucky if a handful survive. Although probably well- intentioned it seems to me a poorly thought out publicity stunt.
The picture alone would suggest that these trees are planted in a very inappropriate location and that they are unlikely to survive.
