Description

Explore the architectural transformation of Ireland's capital with Dublin's Bourgeois Homes: Building the Victorian Suburbs, 1850-1901. This Routledge publication examines the rapid development that began in 1859, when wide red brick structures first appeared in the green fields surrounding the city. Between 1850 and 1901, an estimated 35,000 homes were constructed, changing the landscape of Dublin forever. This book details how the upper middle classes defined their status through elaborate designs, featuring granite staircases and decorative entrances. Readers will learn about the history of these highly valued structures that remain central to the city today. Because these homes are protected under strict conservation laws, understanding their origins provides a deep look into the urban evolution of Dublin. This work is an essential resource for those interested in Irish architecture, urban history, and the social development of the Victorian era.
