Dublin’s Grand Canal Dock Updates in 2025
January 9, 2025
The Grand Canal Dock Residents Association(GCDRA) has cooked up a plan to turn the historic Graving Docks into the city’s next big thing.
The Grand Canal basin in Dublin, long a symbol of the city’s industrial heritage, is on the brink of a transformation. GCDRA is leading the charge, calling on Waterways Ireland to implement a ‘bold, vibrant initiative to breathe new life into the historic Graving Docks’. The proposal? A floating lido, saunas, food trucks, event spaces, and even a pocket forest—all set to create a cultural and recreational haven in the heart of Dublin.
