East Wall
East Wall (An Port Thoir in Irish) is an area of the Northside of the city of Dublin, Ireland. It is bounded by the North Strand Road to the west, by North Wall to the south, and by East Wall Road, Dublin to the north. It is linked to Ringsend by the East-Link bridge; it is linked to Fairview by the Annesley Bridge.
East Wall is also the starting point of the Dublin Port Tunnel.
Originally a working class area, with many finding employment in the neighbouring Dublin Port, the area has now become popular due to its proximity to the city centre, the International Financial Services Centre, and East Point Business Park.
The celebrated playwright Sean O’Casey grew up in East Wall.
