The architect behind the controversial Longboat Quay apartment complex in Dublin claims he would move in immediately if he had enough money.
Speaking to the Sunday Times, Eugene van Jaarsveld said he's 'sceptical' about the extent of supposed dangers.
900 residents have been given a month to carry out massive remedial works to bring the building up to fire safety standards - or face eviction.
The architect has challenged claims that walls, smoke vents and fire doors are inadequate.
The landlord - the Dublin Docklands Development Authority - has offered to pay 58% of the cost, but that still leaves a bill of around €2m to be financed by management and apartment owners.
The DDDA said earlier this week it understands that the receiver over the assets of Gendsong Limited, which includes 18 apartments, will be making a "substantial contribution" towards the costs.
Dublin Fire Brigade has served a fire notice, setting out what works are needed and a timeline for completion, which you can read here.
The owners and residents at the apartments said earlier that they are in a 'nightmare scenario'.
In a statement, they said that they do not have the money to fund the cost of refurbishments to the building.
