It opened in 2004 as a stop on the Red Line.[1] The Red Line runs east to west along Phoenix Street, and the Four Courts stop is located to on a section of road closed completely to other traffic, to the side of Smithfield plaza, a large open square previously used as a market. It also provides access to the Old Jameson Distillery and Light House Cinema.[2] It has two edge platforms integrated into the pavement. The stop connects with a number of Dublin Bus routes.
