drive to Blancherdstown.

I do regularly. Where’s the green belt. On the left-hand side of the N3 is the Phoenix Park racecourse, which is as we speak being completely covered in apartments.
On the right-hand side, there is a narrow strip of land between the road and the canal/railway. Apart from a couple of already existing developments, it is to be home to a new overbridge road interchange, a new railway station and a park and ride facility.
The River Road, that is the back road between Blanchardstown and Finglas, is the site for Pelletstown and Rathborne already with more developments to come.
