Minister Dara Calleary has turned the sod on the new €9.5m community centre for Maigh Cuilinn.
It will host an international-sized basketball court, a stage area which can hold an audience of over a thousand people, a smaller function room, and a start-up business hub.
Construction on the 29 acre site just off the main entrance to Killarainey Woods in the village is expected to take around two years.
Our reporter Sarah Slevin was at the sod turning today and spoke to the Minister, Peadar Mac Fhlannchadha, Cathaoirleach of Forbairt Pobail Mhaigh Cuilinn and Forbairt Pobail Mhaigh Cuilinn Manager, Ándría Uí Thaidhg
