Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to present the experience of Temple Bar’s rehabilitation in Dublin. As one of the most popular neighbourhoods in Dublin’s historical city centre, Temple Bar has in the past undergone severe population decline coupled with a profound social, functional and environmental crisis. However, in the 1990s, one of Europe’s greatest urban rehabilitation success stories was to begin in Temple Bar. Within about a decade, it was able to draw residents once again, attract new activities, bring employment back and enhance Temple Bar’s urban environment. The culture cluster has played a truly innovative role in the strategy that was followed.
