  • St. Anne's Park – Location
    ST. ANNE’S PARK – LOCATION St. Anne’s Park is situated between the suburbs of Raheny and Clontarf. The park is surrounded on three sides by mature residential housing, most of which is made up of detached and semi-detached private single family dwellings dating from the mid part of the twentieth century, with some more recent apartment buildings from the late twentieth/early twenty-first centuries. The fourth side of the park extends along the coast at James Larkin Road, overlooking North Bull Island and Dublin Bay. It is bisected by the course of the Naniken River, which flows eastwards into the sea near the artificial pond at the Herculanean Temple, one of the park’s well-known follies. St. Anne’s Park has numerous pedestrian entrances around its perimeter, and parking facilities at the Red Stables entrance on Mount Prospect Avenue, Clontarf Road and All Saint’s Road. Aspects of the wider area include: North Bull Island Nature Reserve (part of the UNESCO Dublin Bay Biosphere) Dollymount Strand S2S coastal greenway (walking & cycle route, section from Sutton to Fairview) Raheny and Clontarf village centres local businesses, shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants various communities and community groups schools (numerous primary and second-level) religious communities and places of worship sports clubs and organisations other parks and recreational spaces ST.

  • Suburban and Urban Housing in the Twentieth Century
    Suburban and urban housing in the twentieth century RUTH MCMANUS* Geography Department, St Patrick’s College, Drumcondra [Accepted 01 February 2011. Published 19 April 2011.] Abstract Ireland experienced dramatic political, social and economic change in the twentieth century, of which the shift from a majority rural to a majority urban population was one of the most notable. These changes are refl ected in the nature and form of the built environment. In this essay, the evolution of urban and suburban housing during Ireland’s fi rst urban century is considered. Existing patterns of unplanned middle- class suburban expansion were supplemented, from the 1920s, by a programme of planned working-class suburbanization. State intervention thus impacted on the location and form of new housing estates, while layouts owed much to the early British town-planning movement. High levels of owner-occupation in Ireland, the combined result of government policy and individual preference, were also refl ected in a preference for particular housing forms. The predominance of the standardised three- or four-bedroom, semi-detached or detached house, was not challenged until the 1990s when there was a surge in apartment provision, largely driven by tax incen- tives. Changing norms in terms of housing size, facilities and design were shaped by the standards adopted by government and local authorities, as well as to the pressures of the speculative building process. Introduction and The place called home, in an Irish context, changed little in the course of the twentieth context century, and yet it also changed dramatically. This apparent contradiction can be explained by the fact that, while the typical home at the beginning of the twenty-fi rst century remains the single-family detached or semi-detached dwelling, its location and context are now rather different.
