Abstract
Over the past twenty years, Dublin’s inner city has been transformed socially,
economically and physically. Recent shifts include the emergence of new industrial
and financial spaces, the large-scale construction of private apartments targeted at
middle- and upper-income groups, the rapid escalation of land and house prices,
the displacement of indigenous residents and locally-relevant employment
together with the disappearance of much of the city’s traditional industrial fabric.
The pace of change in inner Dublin has been remarkable and its initiation set
against a backdrop of widespread inner-city decay and dereliction, high levels of
unemployment and poverty and a prolonged period of depopulation and
disinvestment.
