At the moment South Richmond Street might well be described as ugly and unattractive but maybe it has been so for many years.

The built environment in Dublin is changing faster than I can photograph the changes and there is an area on South Richmond Street that caught me by surprise earlier this year as many of the restaurants and shops had closed or disappeared. According to many the Bernard Shaw was a huge loss to the area but I am not convinced and some of my friends who live in the area were pleased to see it go elsewhere.

Richmond Villas [now shown as Richmond Street South on Google Maps] was a place to visit if you were interested in Street Art but now it is dominated by a huge construction site [Charlemont Square where Amazon will be located] and I assume that the laneway will no longer exist once the building project has been completed. I am assuming the the Bernard Shaw and nearby buildings will soon be demolished.

Amazon employs more than 2,500 people in Ireland and announced plans last June to create another 1,000 jobs over the next two years, most of which will be located Dublin at Blanchardstown, Tallaght, North Count Dublin and the Portobello area of Dublin.

The Charlemont Square project was due to be completed this year but because of the current lock down completion may be delayed. This mixed-use development is the second phase of a city centre regeneration project.

My understanding is that there will be a total 79 social housing units.There will also be 184 private residential units, bringing to 263 the total number of homes in the complex, in addition to significant commercial office space and retail units.
