Dublin Fruit and Vegetable Market

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This week I attended a number of Lunar New Year celebrations [Year Of The Rat] but unfortunately I was unable to attend the flagship event in the Markets Area of the City has my mother who will be 100 in May had a fall.

Dublin’s historic Fruit and Vegetable Market reopened for two days on Sat 25 and Sun 26 January to host the main event of the 2020 Dublin Chinese New Year Festival – the Spring Festival Fair.

The iconic Victorian building, which closed for redevelopment in August 2019 welcomed thousands of people over the course of two days as Dublin City celebrated the Year of the Rat.

The site will be redeveloped over the next two years and according to new plans, the Chancery Street yard will become the new entrance from the Luas line. The original fish market site is also included within the development proposals.

Dublin City Fruit and Vegetable Wholesale Markets were designed in 1884 by Parke Neville (d.1886), completed with modifications after his death in 1892 by Spencer Harty, his successor as City Engineer and was opened on the 6th December 1892 by the Right Honourable Joseph M. Meade, Lord Mayor.

The building occupied the whole block or former trade premises between Boot Lane (renamed St. Michan's Street), Mary's Lane, Arran Street East and Chancery Street (formerly Pill Lane). The level of decorative detail is typical of Victorian public architecture.
