  • Migration Patterns in Dublin County Borough
    Migration Patterns in Dublin County Borough N. JOHNSON N the last 15 years Dublin has undergone a dramatic change, from the fairly sleepy introverted capital of the 26 counties, it has been transformed into a relatively I sophisticated and increasingly cosmopolitan financial and commercial centre. The large demand for office space has led to a change in function of an ever-growing number of buildings in the central city area, while the steadily increasing population is being housed and rehoused in new suburban estates around and beyond the city perimeter. Change has been rapid and this study, limited to that area included in the County Borough due to lack of adequate data, concentrates on certain facets of the city in explanation of the continuous movements of its population. It will show how, as in the majority of cities in the Western Hemisphere, the ecological process of invasion and succession determined the present composition of Dublin and it will outline along what path, without official intervention, its future pattern of growth may proceed. The Growth of Modern Dublin Urban ecologists1 describe the usual process of a city's growth in terms of a centrifugal process. The continuous pressure of migrant population on central city accommodation causes the residents to move to the periphery of the city in order to escape the encroach­ ing slums. This process of invasion and succession continues with the areas of over- *I wish to thank Professor B. Hutchinson, Dr R. C. Geary and Dr Brendan M.

  • Case Study: Grand Hotel Malahide
    May 2016 Case Study: Grand Hotel Malahide Ownership type Privately owned by Ryan family. Business size Medium. Core activities Hospitality, food and beverage. Businesses Grand Hotel Malahide, Marine Hotel Sutton. Address Grove Rd., Malahide. Age 41 years old (starting with the Ryan family’s involvement). Generation Second. Employee no 180 (three family members actively involved). Turnover range €10-20 M. Key Finding Inter-generational learning. Company Background Matthew and Maureen Ryan entered the hospitality trade in 1960 when they opened a large tavern in Kildare. In 1974, the couple made the decision to buy the Grand Hotel Malahide—a 180 year old hotel with a succession of prominent owners. The hotel had only 36 rooms and 12 staff and required significant managerial and infrastructural investment. In 1989, the business expanded when the family purchased Marine Hotel Sutton, located ten kilometres from the original hotel. Over two decades, the Ryan family has overseen the redevelopment of the Grand Hotel Malahide, which has undergone more than seven refurbishment projects and extensions costing an estimated €35m; such projects include a conference centre, 150 additional bedrooms, a new reception area, Ryan’s Bar, a Business Meeting Centre and the Coast restaurant overlooking Malahide Marina. At the opening of the newly refurbished hotel in 2007, former-Taoiseach Bertie Ahern stated: “It is great to see a family-operated business such as this grow and prosper along with the surrounding area.” The Ryan family have revived the building, transforming it into a four-star rated hotel with 203 bedrooms and 180 employees. Interview with Al Ryan Director of Grand Hotel Malahide and Marine Hotel Sutton Family Involvement The second generation of Ryans were involved in the business throughout, starting in small roles, such as lounge boys, during the summer months.
