1972 – Oisin House, Pearse Street, Dublin
Architect: Tyndall Hogan Hurley
Truly horrific materials, design, and massing marks this waste of a fantastic site along a busy street and abutting Trinity College. Pearse Street, or Brunswick Street as it was, had some fine Victorian buildings along this side – including commercial premises and the Queens Theatre, all long gone. Oisin House was built on the site of the large Thomas McKenzie & Sons hardware and seeds warehouse, which was destroyed in a fire. Demolished.
