Yup, not encouraging at all. In summary:
Despite the €1.5m (still leaving a €1m shortfall), the Casino is a very round hole for a very square peg.
75,000 visitors to ensure viability. That's an average of 40 per hour six hours a day, six days a week. Malahide is just too out o fthe way for that footfall.
Busaras is far more central, with less capital cost, less planning obstacles and a more deliverable audience (bus, tram, city centre parking etc.).
