WalkTalkChalk: Wastelands

See a different side to Cork City: Walking Tours with a Dereliction Twist Join Frank + Jude for an urban exploration that’s much more than just another walking tour. Discover hidden heritage, abandoned buildings and thought provoking street art. Go beyond the city’s history told through its streets and buildings, with jaw dropping stories of lost potential. See the Cork they want you to forget and the city that it could be. Together we’ll explore big questions around urban inequality, political responsibility and people power. Challenging common myths and economic dogmas. No two tours are the same. Different routes. Different people. Each one shaped by where conversations take us. Featured in New York Times | Virgin TV | RTÉ One | TG4 | The Examiner | The Echo | Cork Midsummer Festival Wastelands This route will focus on a part of Cork City that is full of large landbanks, where some of the most important heritage in the city has been left rot for decades, an area the developers and authorities want you to forget about. We will meet at the Merchant’s Quay end of Mary Elmes Bridge. You won’t miss us in our hard hats and white lab coats. The route is flat and wheelchair accessible.
