Description

Explore the history of Dublin's urban development with this architectural study from Routledge. Covering the period from 1935 to 1975, this book examines the massive housing boom that transformed the city. Author Ellen Rowley provides an overview of how Dublin Corporation built tens of thousands of two-storey houses, creating entire communities on green fields and virgin sites at the city's edge. This research also looks at the development of four-storey flat blocks within the city centre. By connecting national political and social histories with international architectural contexts, the text investigates the reasons behind these large-scale building projects. It is a valuable resource for those interested in how urban environments change and the questions surrounding architectural and urban obsolescence. This book offers a deep look into the social and physical construction of modern Dublin through its housing history.
