HENRIETTA STREET AFTER IT RAINED

HENRIETTA STREET AFTER IT RAINED

CONSTITUTION HILL [WHERE THE BROADSTONE LUAS TRAM STOP IS NOW LOCATED]

Currently there is much ongoing construction work and sometime in the summer the new Broadstone Plaza [Grangegorman Gate] will become operational.

There was once a harbour at this location: Broadstone harbour’s location was chosen for its proximity to the markets and the law courts. Bolton Street was the preferred site, but high land prices and objections from local residents forced its relocation to Broadstome. The Kings Inns, designed by James Gandon, was built opposite the harbour and, like the Four Courts and Custom House, was designed with its frontage on a waterfront.
