Waterford city could be the premier Irish destination, if the entire quayside wasn't a massive carpark.
As a fellow Irishman, visiting from another county. I've been to Waterford on many occasions. My most recent visit had me thinking. What a cracking place the entire quayside would be with more public spaces. More art installations. More vendors, and generally less car along the quays. It's maddening how this prime riverside real estate is given over to cars. What a complete waste.
Bonus mention goes to Dungarvan town centre too. Rather than have an Italian style piazza. Instead it's, guess what ? . Yep, a car park .
