Point Village


The Point Village (Irish: Iosta na Rinne) is a "city quarter" in the North Wall area of Dublin, Ireland. The €800 million development was originally planned to feature a shopping centre, a cinema complex, a museum, offices and a hotel plus a five-storey underground car park. The hotel, car park and cinema opened and remain open. Due to the economic downturn, the planned shopping centre element was delayed. The development ran into a number of problems and was taken over by NAMA in April 2013.

Also in 2013, Yahoo! secured 6,600 sq.m at the Point Village, moving some operations from their main location at East Point Business Park in 2015.

The terminus of the docklands extension of the Luas light rail system is located in the middle of the development. This Luas link connects the Point Village to other transport options, including the DART, suburban rail, Busáras, mainline rail, and the future Dublin Metro. The Dublin Port Tunnel southern portal is also located nearby.

The Point station is on the Luas Red Line that runs from Tallaght to Connolly and from Busáras to the terminus at the Point Village.
