Biography

Walter Rahilly was a district architect in County Wexford on the southeast coast of Ireland. His Sandymount Stadium was probably an unrealized project. Sandymount is an affluent coastal suburb of Dublin. In 1952 Rahilly was only 24-years-old and probably still a student. At that time there was the stadium on Lansdowne Road in the area, built as early as 1872. It was demolished in 2007 and replaced by the modern Aviva Stadium.
