Post date: Jun 29, 2011 10:57:00 AM

It was good to see Rathmines featuring in the Irish Times in two recent issues.

On Saturday, June 18 in the magazine section, Frank McDonald’s piece Street life was an affectionate look at the area as a whole.

The following Saturday, June 25 an article under the heading Built up and knocked down, on this year’s Architectural Association of Ireland Awards, mentioned that two out of the top four “special awards” went to projects in the Rathmines area:
