Adamstown, Dublin

Adamstown (Irish: Baile Adaim, meaning "Town of Adam") is the first "new town style development" planned in Ireland since Shannon Town in 1982. The new settlement is being developed 16 km from Dublin city centre, on a 220 hectare site just south of Lucan, west of the Griffeen River and north of the Grand Canal. No date has been set for the official granting of any specific official status but development is underway since 2005. As of 2017, perhaps 3,500 of a planned population of 25,000 were resident. Adamstown is in the jurisdiction of South Dublin.
