From the sublime of a proclamation that the Queen had died and her son had acceded to the throne to this, the nurses home for the Royal Infirmary in Dublin way back when; NLI has it all.
Welcome back to all who are not on holidays and we here at Library Towers hope you all had a happy Easter!
derangedlemur confirmed that this should fall into our "no longer standing" album. In that it was (perhaps just within the last decade or so) demolished to make way for the new Criminal Courts of Justice close to the Parkgate entrance of the Phoenix Park...
Photographer: Robert French
Collection: Lawrence Photograph Collection
Date: Catalogue range c.1865-1914

A beautiful house. Like the style.

Well, here's the infirmary, anyway: bit.ly/2URHcZc

To get a hill like that, it must be all the way down by Chapelizod or Ballyfermot, unless infirmary road used to look very different.

Mind you, everything else around it in the catalogue is up the near end of the Phoenix Park...

Actually, based on the ground plan, this must be it: bit.ly/2USaczK

And in a typical enough piece of vandalism, here's what it looks like now: goo.gl/maps/gwpT2JsFe8JV66H7A

Still, I suppose we have more criminals than nurses these days, what with one thing and another.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/gnmcauley Sure, but they could have stuck it on Hawkins street instead.

It looks way too like that house the killer clown lives in in IT! But definitely interesting, as always.

Architecture of Dublin
seen from above on Bing maps just before it was about to be demolished. I find it hard to believe they let a Victorian tudor revival type building like this be demolished. Sad to see it. Maybe there wasn't much of the historical fabric left however www.bing.com/maps?osid=73d3c4e2-b2eb-4882-b279-a41ef7ec11... It almost seems like they didn't even need to demolish the house
