O'Devaney Gardens is a major housing redevelopment project located in Dublin 7, Ireland. Originally constructed in 1954 as a public housing complex, it has undergone significant transformation in recent years.
The current project, which commenced in February 2023, aims to deliver 1,044 high-quality, A-rated homes. These will include a mix of social, affordable, cost rental, and private housing units. The development is designed to be one of Europe's most sustainable, with a focus on community spirit, resident wellness, and eco-friendly living.
The project will be completed in four phases, featuring two new parks, cultural and community spaces, shops, a café, and a crèche. It emphasizes land usage optimized for living rather than driving, with access to a Car Sharing Club providing hybrid and electric vehicles.
Phase 1 of the development will deliver 379 homes, along with a park, crèche, and retail units. The overall project will include apartments in blocks up to 14 storeys high, marking a significant change from the original low-rise complex.
O'Devaney Gardens aims to create a vibrant, integrated community that addresses Dublin's housing needs while promoting sustainability and social cohesion. Its central location, less than 3km from O'Connell Street, makes it an attractive option for urban living.
