RATHMINES AREA OF DUBLIN

AREAS OF DUBLIN RATHMINES

At times I cannot decide if a road or street is in Rathgar or Rathmines.

Rathmines was a well known across Ireland as part of a traditional "flatland" - providing rented accommodation to newly arrived junior civil servants and third level students coming from outside the city since the 1930s. In more recent times, Rathmines has diversified its housing stock and many houses have been gentrified by the wealthier beneficiaries of Ireland's economic boom of the 1990s.

Rathmines, nonetheless, is often said to have a cosmopolitan air, and has a diverse international population and has always been home to groups of new immigrant communities and indigenous ethnic minorities.

Street photography is currently my main interest and I invite you to share my interest. I currently use a SONY A7RIV camera which I really like but I do use other equipment including an Apple iPhone XR.
