Fairly grim development of corporation flats – 143 units in five connected blocks. The development was first mooted in 1957, and a sketch design was presented to Dublin Corporation the following year. The facades consisted of the revealed concrete structure infilled with brick and glazing, and some recessed balconies. Communal stairwells linked walkways along each floor level. Demolished 2005/06 after years of increasing dereliction.
