About Glasnevin Nth

Glasnevin North is a mainly residential part of north Dublin in the D09 area, sitting close to Ballymun, Santry, Whitehall and the older Glasnevin village. The area has a practical suburban feel, with housing estates and local services alongside major employment, education and retail areas around Ballymun and Santry. North Dublin National School Project provides a nearby education option, while Dublin City University and other schools and colleges are readily accessible by bus. Commuting is generally by Dublin Bus, with the M50, M1 and Dublin Airport routes convenient for drivers; Drumcondra and nearby rail connections provide access towards the city and northern suburbs. Everyday shopping is available in Ballymun and Santry, including larger retail facilities at IKEA and Dublin Airport’s surrounding commercial area, while Glasnevin and Whitehall offer additional local services. Residents can reach a broad choice of cafés, takeaways, restaurants and traditional pubs in neighbouring districts, although the locality itself is more service-led than nightlife-focused. Leisure options include nearby sports facilities, the Sports Car Park and Soccer Centre, with parks such as Santry Demesne and the National Botanic Gardens within a short journey. Centre for Talented Youth Ireland, Centrepoint and Ballymun Job Centre Co-operative Society Limited are notable local organisations, reflecting the area’s strong links with education, community support and employment services.
