Civic Offices
Civic Offices
Wood Quay , Dublin 8
From 1841 until 1 January 2002 it referred to the unicameral city assembly of Dublin, which was part of the overall administrative and governmental system of Dublin known as Dublin Corporation. Since 1 January 2002, it is the name which applies both to the assembly and to the whole system of Dublin government formerly called Dublin Corporation.
The headquarters of Dublin City Council, known as the Civic Offices. The building of the first phase of this office complex in such a sensitive and heritage-rich area, caused much public outrage and protest in 1978.
The site at Wood Quay contained one of the richest medieval and Viking archaeological finds in Europe and uncovered certainly the largest excavated medieval urban site in northern Europe.
The City Council refused to cancel its plans for the site and, even though tens of thousands of people marched around the site in protest and the courts found in favour of the protesters to preserve the site for future generations, the council, winning on a technicality, forced ahead construction before the site could be fully explored or preserved.
Although around 2 million artefacts were discovered and preserved, the work was far from completed when the site was closed down

This was my second visit to Trinity Capital and thoroughly enjoyed my stay once again. We arrived for our stay for my 40th birthday with my husband and was greeted in my room to a birthday card and box of sweets and then also realised that they had kindly upgraded us to an Executive Room. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and the atmosphere in the hotel was as wonderful as ever - the location is only a short walk from Temple Bar and Grafton Street, which is great. Hopefully before too long I shall be back to Trinity Capital for my third stay and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Dublin.
