Some years back I was managing a shop there and had accommodation upstairs. I had let a Christmas candle burn upstairs while I stocked the shop for the next days sales. Many hours later I finally went up to find that it had burned a hole in the table. Ten minutes more and grafton St would have been aflame as the roofs are old and dry and it would have spread like wildfire

Grafton St. Used to have such great character with very unique shops and old coffee/teahouses. They've ruined it. Now it's just like any other generic corporate high street in Europe. It's lost all character, just like the Dublin itself.

My father grew up in the Gardner st area in the 50's and 60's and still speaks very fondly of his experience. Sadly the local communities were decimated by unemployment and drug epidemics in the late 70's and 80's. Heroin especially absolutely wiped out whole communities in a shockingly short time. I found myself with time to kill in the city centre and queys recently and took a good long walk around - I still find it pleasent and full of youth and atmosphere. However the north city area around Summerhill, Ballybough and East Wall remains shamefully neglected, and the area around Abbey/Talbot/O'Connell st can still feel salty at times. The city still has plenty of potential, but more work needs to be done.
