    The architecture school for the past few years has been based on Copley Street. There was an apartment block right beside which most Architecture students used to stay in. However, I've heard that these properties have gone into receivership. It'd be no harm to e-mail the department and ask where you'll based next year.

    If the properties on Copley street have gone into receivership, I image Deanshall may be the next best place in terms of location! You're looking at maybe a 15 min walk to Copley, 10-15 to UCC Campus and 3 min to town.

    Dont know anyone who as lived there though as an FYI.

    The apartments were taken over by first choice property so I'm not sure what's going to happen to them, but I'd advise living somewhere not next door to the building, back in first year a few people who lived there used to be able to walk between the apartment and studio without going outside for a few days, especially around deadlines. Deanshall is really nice a good few people over the years have lived there, it's a bit on the expensive side bit it is worth it imo. After first year most people move into a house around the barrack street area. Any other questions feel free to ask here or pm me if that suits better.
    Also so far it looks like the department will be staying in Copley Street.
