Lower cusack first in use for AISF '94 is my memory

How could someone from Down remember the Cusack in 1994? I  wonder.

You do think of Down and the old Croke Park.

I was in the canal End for 94 and have vague memories of the crowd chanting at the empty Cusack, "your not singing over there"

[Wildweasel74]

Cusack was actually full, well bottom tier, was in it for the semi'94

There must be a refurbishment plan for the "new" stands.
I remember being in Shannon a few years age and getting the feeling that the last investment was in the 1970s. The Aviva probably has better Corp infrastructure than Croke Park, just because it is newer.

What's the timeline  for croke park? The cusack will be 30 years  old next year.

I know  hospitality changes ,  and the indoor stuff can be  upgraded. But the  stands  and the roofs themselves?  How long will they last  , realistically?

According to this (subscription),  updating the Cusack is a medium term infrastructure project for  the GAA

According to this , the European investment Bank approved a loan of  €36m to the GAA to redevelop Croke park. If the pandemic hadn't happened it would have been time to refurbish the stand..Then the GAA's income collapsed. The GAA is now fluirseach again so the project is probably back of the queue behind the provincial stadium work that has been planned.

I remember being in Croke Park - Cusack Stand during the summer.

Looking up at the roof, there was a lot of them plastic/perspex sheets and from the roof side, they were filthy.

They could do with a good powerwash on top of the roof.  It would make a good difference all the way round.

Lower Cusack was first (partially) in use for 1994's Leinster football final.

Good on you. You're clearly the greatest gael ever. Close all corporate facilities. No real supporter uses them.
