Built as the College of Domestic Economy for the City of Dublin Vocational Education Committee and later a part of DIT. It has an excellent Art Deco entrance hallway. The external bulk is softened by the angled brick corners. The corner closest to O’Connell Street, the eastern, has a large relief sculpture set above street level. A similar spot at the western end is empty.
