Where are the Spire lights?

Dervla | March 27, 2007

I noticed on Saturday night that the Spire was in darkness. Does anyone know who is responsible for its lighting maintenance? I can’t see anything on the Dublin Council site. Would this be a worry for the Aviation Authority?

Update, Declan: I remembered I’d snapped a photo of the spire a couple of weeks ago.

    I noticed it about two weeks ago. It is dangerous, remember when the spire first went up they had to put an aviation light on top to warn air traffic? The night I noticed it the Garda helicopter was flying around the city centre and over O’Connell Street close to the Spire.
