Dublin City Council has announced plans for a large-scale development, dubbed the ‘Dunsink City Quarter’, intended to address housing needs in the region. The project envisions the construction of up to 18,500 new homes across three distinct residential neighbourhoods. Accompanying the housing will be significant investment in public amenities, including the provision of new schools to accommodate a growing population. The plan also prioritizes green spaces, incorporating new parks and extensive greenway networks throughout the development. Council officials state the project aims to create a sustainable and well-connected community. Further details regarding timelines and infrastructure development are expected to be released in the coming months. The proposal is currently undergoing public consultation.
