Open House Dublin 8 October 2011

"Open House" is an iniative where buildings open their doors to the public. You can visit buildings of all kinds that would normally be closed. I went to Liberty Hall, the tallest building in Dublin.

Dublin is predominantly a low rise city, as you can see from the photos attached and the two short videos. Liberty Hall was built in the early 1960s and is only 16 stories tall. These days it shows its age, but I have to say I like it.





The height gives you a great view over the city and a bit of perspective - you can see the massive infrastructural changes in the city over the last ten years. You can see the new bridges over the River Liffey, new sports stadia and buildings like the convention centre.
