- Investing in public transportation and infrastructure
- Building more affordable housing
- Creating more jobs and opportunities for all residents
- Addressing the city's environmental challenges
"Little History of the Future of Dublin" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on the city's future. McKeon's writing is clear and engaging, and he provides a wealth of data and analysis to support his arguments. This book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the future of Dublin.
