Hotel Park Hyatt - Dublin
On a recent visit to Dublin to see the WB Yeats exhibition at the National Library of Ireland, I noticed this new building on the canal docks. This area is undergoing a huge regeneration programme which the current economic climate will challenge. If you click on the image the link takes you to the website of the architects.
It made me think that the architecture of Dublin has changed significantly in the last 20 years yet, apart from generalist tourist guides, it is over thirty years since the publication of “A Guide to Modern Architecture in Dublin”. Perhaps it is time for a follow-up publication – sooner rather than later given the pace of change.
