In the context of Amaptocare, discuss the Phase 2 - Civic Plaza / Monument of the Project.
The second phase of the project was to be the sandblasting of the names of donors into the granite surface of Ballymun's Civic Plaza, and the installation of a 24 metre by 24 metre panel map of the area, with the site of each tree illuminated, and the "first 15" trees sponsored, one of each offered variety, planted around.  The illuminated map was to be produced by Laurent Fachard, founder of Lyon's lighting specialist LEA studio.By 2008, it was reported that the second phase was delayed by discussions about Dublin's potential Metro link to Dublin Airport, a stop for which was planned to be located at the civic plaza.  Residents and donors complained about a lack of information on the subject and project progress since the main tree-planting, and Ballymun Regeneration promised to hold meetings on update plans in the near term.  By 2010, the artist expected to conclude the project by 2015 but as of 2017, the names on the plaza, and the map, were still pending.  The artist commented in 2017 both "The Amaptocare work is not completed." and "I still hesitate to write that the work is abandoned." and stated that he was optimistic that the full project would be fulfilled, eventually.
