History:
In 1926, Lord Iveagh commissioned the construction of this housing scheme, which was meticulously designed by O'Callaghan & Webb. Over the course of a decade, from 1926 to 1936, this project took shape. Originally dubbed the Guinness Trust, the establishment of the Iveagh Trust dates back to 1890, courtesy of Edward Cecil Guinness, the inaugural Earl of Iveagh. Its primary aim was to offer housing to the working classes in Dublin. These 136 residences were specifically tailored for employees of the Guinness company. The scheme stands as a testament to early suburban architecture, marked by its thoughtful design and impeccable craftsmanship.
Community:
Nestled within the tranquil confines of Iveagh Gardens is a vibrant community spirit, nurtured by an engaged residents' association. This association orchestrates a variety of events throughout the year, including a lively summer BBQ and a delightful Easter egg hunt.
