What is the Liberties?

 
Character: 
Historic neighbourhood lapsed into dereliction
 
Social Problems:
Housing, Employment, Education

The Liberties starts at Stephen's Green Hotel, Stephen's Green and finishes at Visitors' Centre, Guinness Brewery, Market Street.

It generally corresponds to the postal district, Dublin 8.

The area stretches from the historic city core to Heuston Station, Dublin’s western gateway, and is rich in cultural and architectural heritage. It is home to the famous Guinness Brewery, the city’s two cathedrals and several national institutions including the National College of Art and Design.

Residentially, the distrrict is the home of students and the working class.
