Freiburg in Germany is another example.
They have a hierarchy of streets so that they say, well, look, if you want to cut through our city as a shortcut, would you use this street, not all the streets?
And our super block idea is that.
It's to make sure that people don't cut across parts of the city that we want to give back to the locals.
Yeah, so we tried an urban beach two years ago up in the Crescent, a much smaller version.
Urban beaches, as you know, were made famous in Paris, but they've been used in Prague and Warsaw and other cities.
And we're moving it now this year down right beside the river where we have a space that really hasn't been used much by us in the past.
It'll become an extension of our boardwalk of Arthur's Quay.
And it's really about showcasing the river.
But importantly, and this is, I suppose, an important point that I try and explain here locally as well, many people in Limerick do not have cars.
I mean, 50% of our downtown population doesn't.
Weren't even born in Limerick.
And so while some of the rest of the city are off to Kilkee and Ballybunion, they're staying at home.
And we want to be able to provide those kids the opportunity to kind of have a bit of fun, you know, looking over the water on the beach.
Beautiful.
Their parents to do the same.
We'll have to call in all those Limerick people to give me some support.
Look, I mean, it's exactly that.
I mean, we're retracting plenty of jobs and talents.
We're working on our housing, right?
