The removal of certain period, indeed one of the largest in Europe,1 and had a mixture of impressive administrative functions from Dublin Corporation into bodies under central contemporary features alongside surviving medieval and early modern urban government control in the 1780s, such as paving, cleansing and lighting the fabric. The modern age was represented in fine public buildings, including streets, policing and responsibility for Dublin port, arose from allegations the substantial and impressive barracks, the Parliament House and Trinity of mismanagement by the corporation.5 As a result ad hoc bodies were College. The latter two defined a significant urban space at College Green that created to implement new measures such as the making of wide streets and was captured in engravings by Joseph Tudor (1753) and others (Plate 4).

It was a city During the period 1750 to 1850 the population of the city increased, though poised on the brink of change, both political and topographical. Politically, figures need to be treated with caution.

The and the occupancy rates applied to each house varied.7 Despite these problems Irish parliament was located in the city, the realm of the landed gentry and the general view is that there was a sharp increase in population from the the aristocracy, while urban administration was largely in the hands of the mid 1780s. James Whitelaw’s careful assessment based on his own survey merchant classes. of 1798 and the official work carried out by the conservators of the peace in Topographically, Dublin had grown in all directions in the preceding 1804 suggested that in the immediate aftermath of Ireland’s accession to the century.2 The most recent changes had taken place on the northern fringe of United Kingdom in 1801 the city population dropped by 4,192 or 2½ per cent. the city, particularly development of the early parts of the Gardiner estate Subsequent surveys and censuses show that this decline was reversed very at Henrietta Street and the eastern side of Parnell Square (Map 6).

Around the core, development The growth in the urban population meant an expansion of the built-up area, spilled beyond the administrative boundaries of the city, while to the north-east rather than mere reconstruction within the existing city. Initial developments the limits went as far as the River Tolka at Ballybough Bridge, and to the from the mid eighteenth century were on the fringes of the city, particularly south-east included Donnybrook and Clonskeagh, as well as a narrow coastal to the north in the lands owned by the Gardiner family and their neighbours. strip that ran to the village of Blackrock (Fig. 1). Adjacent to this area, and Rutland Square and North Great George’s Street were completed, along with outside the jurisdiction of the city’s corporation, lay the three liberties of St Cumberland Street North and the beginnings of Gloucester Street (Sean Mac Sepulchre’s, Thomas Court and Donore, and the Deanery of St Patrick’s, known Dermott Street). This period also saw the earliest development by the Gardiner collectively as the Liberties, and there were also manors at Kilmainham and estate of lands west of Dorset Street, with the opening up of Paradise Row Grangegorman to the west and the north. Each of these manors and liberties (Wellington Street). In south Dublin at the same time, the Fitzwilliam family had its own administrative responsibilities. To further complicate the system, had laid out Merrion Street and progressed to the northern side of what would certain functions were carried out by the parishes, whose boundaries coincided become Merrion Square.

The Irish parliament in College Green was to become more actively involved In the last decades of the eighteenth century the direction of development in legislating for urban change and development in the later decades of the was driven by the city’s port and the need to facilitate shipping.

  • 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.

Co. Dublin 27 May 2009 Submission on the Draft Conservation Management Plan for Phoenix Park Dear Commissioners of Public Works We would like to make the following submission on Conservation Management Plan for Phoenix Park – Consultation Draft. 1.0 Introduction The Dublin 15 Community Council was formed 15 years ago (merging the Castleknock & Blanchardstown community councils which date from the early 1970's) to provide an umbrella organisation for the many residents and voluntary community groups in the Dublin 15 area. Residents Associations and Community groups focus on their own specific areas but often feel powerless to influence the big issues like transport, educational, recreational & sporting infrastructure or crime prevention. The Community Council provides a forum to discuss these issues and potential solutions. Our main objective is to develop the consensus views of the Dublin 15 community in matters relating to Planning & Development, Public Transport, Environment, Education, Health Care, Policing, Job Creation, Recreational Facilities, General Infrastructure and Tourist facilities. Having developed the consensus, make representation to State and other Statutory Bodies through a wide variety of communication channels, with the aim of improving the quality of life for the residents of Dublin 15. Page 1 of 5 2.0 Major problems Blanchardstown was earmarked from the early seventies as one of County Dublin’s’ three new towns. It has been anticipated for the past twenty years that this area would eventually accommodate a population of circa 100,000 persons.
