I'm always amazed at people who recently moved into Lucan arbitrarily deciding what is and isn't Lucan and talking about "old Lucan". My family have roots in Lucan going back several hundred years. Coldblow is Lucan and Lucan stretches much further than that to Allenswood. Balgaddy, with the exception of Foxdene, was always Lucan. Adamstown was always Lucan. Check out some historical maps.

There's a huge racial mix in Lucan, lots of Africans especially around Griffeen Avenue on the Ronanstown side where the gang of 50 attacked the teens recently. I used to see African kids/teens shadow boxing as they walked to school. .

A cesspit of crime ? You are joking. What sort of meaningful amenities is it lacking ?
