East Wall Road

East Wall Road (Irish: Bóthar an Phoirt Thoir) runs from the junction of the East-Link drawbridge and North Wall Quay, along the side of the northern part of Dublin port to the junction of the North Strand Road and Poplar Row.The Point Theatre lay at its southern end before it was demolished to make way for the O2 in 2008. It marks the sharp boundary between the port and the residential area of East Wall. Indeed, much of the western side of the road north of East Road is residential, in contrast to the other side.
