There was for many years a group of run-down council blocks, called St.Michael's Estate, beside the cemetery.
St.Michael's Estate has been replaced by a new development. The last of the old council blocks was demolished in 2013.
There has long been a problem with vandalism at the cemetery.
The Cosgrave grave was vandalised in 2014.
There was a video of the vandalism formerly at the Irish Independent.
