What a spectacular juxtaposition – if anything even more preferable to what we have today, though doubtfully the case at street level. A remarkable sight from this location at least.

Isn’t the Georgian on the opposite corner of James Street a replica too? 🙁

As I recall it’s dodgy.

Those two houses in the last picture were not right on corner of James’s Street. There were about four more again to the west of them, so somebody’s giving you false information about no Georgian houses being demolished for the bank, Emma. The ground-floor remains can be seen after demolition (below).

The authors of this publication (A Future for Dublin, 1975) agree with you about the juxtaposition, Graham.
