Ten years ago, some 240 residents were evacuated, by court order, from the controversial Priory Hall complex in Donaghmede over fire safety concerns. Marketed four years previously as a modern, desirable development in a prime Dublin location, the apartments were mostly bought by young, first-time-buyers. Dublin City Council purchased 26 of the apartments that were to be used for social housing. In 2009, the development was found to have a litany of structural defects as well as major fire safety concerns.
