Encyclopedia > Talbot Street

Talbot Street (Sráid Thalbóid in Irish) is a city-centre street located on Dublin's Northside and is one of the principal shopping streets of Dublin, running from Connolly station and the IFSC at Amiens Street in the east to Marlborough Street in the west. The street has some significant buildings such as Talbot House which provides offices for the Department of Education. Further east, a street renewal programme has greatly enhanced the appeal of the area close to Connolly Station. The editorial offices of the Irish Independent newspaper have relocated on Talbot Street and the presence of a number of financial institutions such as Irish Life & Permanent Plc. and Bank of Ireland have also helped to raise the profile of the street which traditionally has not enjoyed the same level of commercial success as Henry Street to the west of nearby O'Connell Streeet. The street was the scene of a momentous event in Irish history when in October, 1920, renowned freedom fighter, Seán Treacy of Tipperary was shot and killed outside the Republican Outfitters shop. A plaque of remembrance marks the spot.
