Group 91′s Temple Bar Architectural Framework Plan was widely welcomed as a visionary approach to creating a new “cultural quarter” for Dublin in one of the most historic areas of the city. Not since the 1963 Planning Act came into force had any such three-dimensional plan been produced for a city or town in Ireland.
The ‘mission statement’ of Stateowned development agency Temple Bar Properties (TBP) was to develop ‘a bustling cultural, residential and smallbusiness precinct that will attract visitors in significant numbers.’
