The 38,000-capacity stadium is scheduled to open in 2016, but does not have final planning approval
A Belfast residents' group has issued a formal objection to the proposed new £70m GAA Casement Park stadium.
The Department of Environment has received a letter of objection from west Belfast’s The Mooreland and Owenvarragh Residents' Association (MORA).
The residents' group is opposing the plans on the grounds of “quality of lives, major restrictions during major events and value of properties will be greatly affected.”
Work on the 38,000 all-seater stadium is due to start in early 2014 with a view to hosting GAA Games (Gaelic Athletic Association) in 2016.
A spokesperson from Ulster GAA said: “We remain totally committed to the redevelopment of the Casement Park stadium to meet the strategic needs of the GAA in Ulster.
Ulster GAA are committed to ensuring the Casement Park redevelopment has a significant and positive economic and social impact on the local area and wider Belfast by creating 1,400 jobs in the construction industry and also bringing significant GAA events back to Belfast.”
The stadium has yet to gain final planning approval.
Global luxury hospitality brand, Six Senses, has partnered with longevity healthcare provider,
HUM2N, to launch a clinic at Six Senses London, at The Whiteley.
Premium London health club, KX Chelsea, will imminently unveil its most significant
redevelopment since its launch in 2002 to create an integrated wellness model combining

Researchers in the US have identified an antibody which could greatly reduce the loss of lean
muscle mass in people who are taking weight-loss medications.

confirming the event’s largest-ever drinks reception as registrations continue to run more
than 10% ahead of last year. [more...]
