This was both a very quick to process update as very little changed; and very long - as this is the last file of the licencing year, so any pubs missing for the entire year* are removed from my master list and demoted on my maps to closed; and I also update registered company names etc on said master list
That said, it's the smallest year on year change list I think I've ever ended up with - and a lot of it is still sweeping up pandemic era closures.
I'm also going to use this post to announce that I've decided to drop passenger vessel licences - that is boats - from my target list. I had already excluded Irish Ferries and Stena ships on the same basis that I've excluded planes; but realistically you can't just go for a drink on any of the boats, so there isn't any reason to include them. N2741 Cill Airne, aka "The Boat", has a conventional pub licence.
*if the pub is actually still open, I leave it there - sometimes renewals don't get posted to the file
Monthly changes:
New:
1022516 Moxy Hotel, East Wall - new hotel appearing on the register only days after it opened.
Reappearance:
N2588 CHQ Building, Georges Dock - this was the licence for Ely CHQ, but now appears to be assigned to the entire building, which is becoming a food market in the near future.
Year-on-Year changes
Additions
N0282 Michael Collins, Rush - I'm pretty sure this is still closed. This got re-added in August but I missed it.
Removals:
1003456 Shipwright, Ringsend - burnt out, but was unlikely to ever reopen due to being converted to accommodation
1013026 Dominick Inn, Dominick Street - never reopened after the pandemic
1018936 Napper Tandy, Merrion Row - never reopened after the pandemic, although it was relicenced in the interim with a new number
N0022 Hill 16, Gardiner Street - likely to reopen soon enough as works have been ongoing for a while, but not renewed in 2025
N0185 Index (formerly Voodoo Lounge), Arran Quay - erratic opening history in recent decades means this will likely return
N0273 Smyths, Donabate - replacement pub may turn up in the redevelopment here
S0004 Xico, Baggot Street - closed quietly in late 2023/early 2024
