119 Howth Road is a video essay, which focuses on selected histories of an uninhabited house, Norabrook and its surrounding environs, culminating in recent attempts to redevelop the site on which it was built. Focusing primarily on the failed development of ‘Ireland’s most exclusive housing project’ from 2008-2010 at the site, the work in turn reveals the challenges and processes of its own construction.
