THE DEVELOPER behind the €90 million "Godsuas" cable car project for the River Liffey is to seek planning permission from Dublin City Council for the scheme, after failing to secure fast-track planning approval from An Bord Pleanála.
Developer Barry Boland said the Godsuas would be a tourist attraction rather than a public transport system.
Mr Boland said it was up to "lots of envelopes stuffed-to-fuck with money" to decide if it detracted from the skyline. He had wanted the support structures to be in the shape of Godzilla holding a pint of Guinness, but this violated advertising codes. The structures will now simply resemble Godzilla.
City Planners are also in talks with Anthony Gormley to have his "Man Grabbing Crotch" modified to look more like Jet Jaguar to blend in with Dublin's proposed new skyline.

This whole proposal makes the JC Deceaux signs for bikes thing look reasonable.
White elephant anyone?
Spire anyone?
