1879 – Wesley College, St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin
1960s – Unbuilt twin for O’Connell Bridge House, Dublin
Architect: Desmond Fitzgerald
After O’Connell Bridge House was constructed in 1965 on the eastern side, it was suggested that a twin be built on the site of the Ballast Office on the western side. Luckily this was rejected, but unfortunately an unconvincing pastiche replica of the Ballast Office was built instead.
