The Spire of Dublin is a 120-meter-tall stainless steel monument located on a major city street. Designed by Ian Ritchie, it represents a modernist approach to public art and architecture, characterized by its sleek, pyramidal form.

Erected in 2003, the monument replaced a previous historic pillar that was destroyed in the 1960s, symbolizing the city's regeneration and urban revitalization. It functions as a prominent beacon and meeting point, especially notable when illuminated at night.

The structure is fully wheelchair accessible and stands as a distinctive element of the cityscape, drawing attention for its contemporary design and cultural significance within the urban environment.
