It's nothing like Cork, the Casey family own oriel park land, but the club built all of the structures. The MFA built all 4 stands in TC, that's the difference. The again we pay a nominal rent compared to the significant amount that Cork have to pay. This is fair enough as they have full use to the best stadium in the league.
The long lease of Oriel Park has a 'must be used for football' clause in it and there is nothing stopping DFC building anything on it, just the tricky thing of having to fund it, but I believe there are plans to make improvements in the not to distant future. Nothing specific has been mentioned, but it's clear there is a very long list of things to look at. It will all come down to funding and priorities.
