Breaking News: On Sunday 13th July the following report appeared on Indymedia Ireland:

The first lot were recreating a pike march for a Robert Emmet/ 1798/Bastille Day commemoration. The second lot were a leaderless group of disaffected insurrectionaries, opening the first autonomous zone/space in Dublin since the Garden of Delight next to Christchurch closed its doors in late 1996.' Full report

Follow up reports included Audio , links to the homelessness problem in the city and calls for a 'Working Bee' on Wednessday to help with the renovation of the space.
By Monday afternoon, calls for help as the squat faced eviction appeared here and here. By 5pm the following report had appeared: "The squatted building at 41 Parnell Square west was today evicted. First at around 2pm, a group of 4 men showed up, claiming to be the owners of the building. They had sledgehammers and crowbars and attacked the door of the squat. The police ended up supporting their attack and illegally evicting the people inside. more here "
