ITT Dublin - Institute to a new city

Tallaght – the region 

Tallaght in South Dublin County is Ireland’s largest urban centre after Dublin and Cork with a population of more than 100,000. Because of its importance the Tallaght area is served by LUAS, Dublin’s very successful new light rail service. Over the years a significant number of companies have located in Tallaght many of them international leaders. Tallaght is also home to Tallaght Hospital, a major national centre of medical care and research. The Civic Offices, Civic Theatre, Library and the Village Development are new, architecturally delightful buildings that give a cosmopolitan atmosphere to this new city. Tallaght has a young population and enjoys a high level of employment. South Dublin County Council has assets of over 3 billion euro and manages its services with a budget of more that 450 million euro. The National Basketball Arena is located in Tallaght, and the new state of the art Shamrock Rovers soccer stadium will be an exciting local amenity. Many young professionals and others are now living in apartments in Tallaght and enjoy a huge range of excellent local services – supermarkets, cinemas, restaurants, theatres, keep fit clubs and parks. For those who like hiking Blessington lakes and the Wicklow mountains are just around the corner from Tallaght.
