First, it was a bike shelter, then a security hut, and now a wall.
The Office of Public Works is coming under fire again after it emerged it spent almost half a million euros replacing a wall.
The OPW has acknowledged that the structure outside the Workplace Relations Commission in Dublin suffered significant delays and increased costs.
The OPW has already faced criticism over the high costs of recent projects, including the Leinster House bike shelter, at €336,000, and the security shelter at Government Buildings, which cost €1.4m.
Aontú leader Peadar Toibín called the OPW the "Office of Posh Walls" after it was discovered that the average cost for the 70-meter perimeter at Lansdowne House was €7,000 per meter.
One local resident in Dublin says he witnessed the wall being built over a significant period.
"Probably the most expensive wall not just in Europe but also the world. I wonder about the brains behind the construction of it.
"Bricklayers back in the day would have had that done in two to three weeks."
