East Wall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

East Wall may also refer to fortifications, see East Wall (defensive line).

East Wall (An Port Thoir in Irish) is an area of the Northside of the city of Dublin, Ireland. It is bounded by the North Strand Road to the west and by East Wall Road, Dublin to the north. East Wall is also the starting point of the Dublin Port Tunnel.

Originally a working class area, with many finding employment in the neighbouring Dublin Port, the area has now become popular due to its proximity to the city centre, the International Financial Services Centre, and East Point Business Park.
