About Leeson Street
Leeson Street runs south from Dublin’s South City Centre towards the Grand Canal and leafy Georgian and Victorian neighbourhoods around Portobello, Ranelagh and Ballsbridge. The area combines handsome period terraces, apartment buildings, offices and embassies, with a distinctly central yet relatively settled character. Residents are within walking distance of St Stephen’s Green, Iveagh Gardens, the National Concert Hall and the canal, while Baggot Street and Camden Street provide a broad choice of shops, cafés, restaurants and nightlife. Commuters benefit from frequent Dublin Bus services along Leeson Street and nearby corridors, easy access to the Luas Green Line at Charlemont and Beechwood, and road connections towards Ballsbridge, Donnybrook and the south suburbs. Education and childcare provision nearby includes Leeson Park Creche & Montessori, while Blue School of Motoring offers local driver training rather than mainstream schooling. Everyday amenities include offices at One Park Place and Two Park Place, local convenience shopping, pharmacies and healthcare services, with larger retail choices available in the city centre and Rathmines. The surrounding area also supports a varied social and leisure life, from established pubs and restaurants to sports clubs, gyms and cultural venues, although traffic and limited parking are typical of such a central Dublin location.
