Dublin 2, also rendered as D2[1][2] and D02, is a historic postal district on the southside of Dublin, Ireland. In the 1960s, this central district became a focus for office development.[3] More recently, it became a focus for urban residential development.[4] The district saw some of the heaviest fighting during Ireland's Easter Rising.[5]
