Theres a brilliant view of the Spire from outside Arnotts, as all of the red brick Victorian & Edwardian buildings down Henry Street, with their elaborate dutch gables, decorative brick and terracotta, contrast so well with it’s sleek profile.
The Spire is having another positive effect on Dublin as, for the first time, Dubliners are being encouraged to look up, above shop/ground floor level, and now hopefully will begin to appriciate the rich architectural heritage they pass by, unheedingly, everyday.
