    I used to live in Dublin 15 up until 2002 and the memories i have of it are great


    I recently returned after working overseas and my jaw dropped after a quick drive around the area

    What has happened?????!!!!!!!!!

    first of all coolmine industrial estate looks like somewhere in Romania, that new estate ongar is like Lagos


    I visited a friend who bought a property up in Clonee and he and his family are the only Irish family on the road and he says both his neighbors are on the dole!!!



    Please tell me this is a bad dream people !!!


    Seriously though what has happened to a once great area?

    It all happened this year by a man living in Castleknock, Dublin 15. He didn't want anyone in his area so he and his buddies kicked up a fuss.
