The Italian Quarter (Irish: An Ceathrú Iodálach) is an unofficially-named private development on the north bank of the River Liffey in central Dublin, Ireland.[a][3][b] The development comprises Bloom Lane, a pedestrianised alley, and the properties located along both sides of it, including an apartment complex known as Quartiere Bloom.[5][6] In 2019, Italy Magazine named the area as one of the places to find "one of the more convincing approximations of mangiare all'italiana" in Dublin.[3]
With "European-style" dining establishments and cafes, the Italian Quarter is one of several mixed-use quarters that have appeared in Dublin since the 1990s, promoted by the Dublin City Council and private developers.[7]

When city districts are fabricated, rather than developing organically, there can often be confusion about what they're called. Take Dublin's so-called Italian Quarter, which was formerly described as Quartiere Bloom and yet is also part of the much-hyped Millennium Walkway dreamt up by property developers and the city council.
