1750 – No.5 South Leinster Street, Dublin
Beautifully restored in 2007/08, this fine Georgian building with later Victorian external details adjoins and is surrounded by the National Gallery of Ireland wing by Benson + Forsyth.
South Leinster Street Dublin
Named due to its proximity to the large mansion of the Fitzgerald family, Earls of Kildare and Leinster. Until 1756, it was, like Nassau Street and Lincoln Place, part of St Patrick’s Well Lane. Buildings were damaged here in a terrorist bomb explosion in 1974.
1750 – No.6 South Leinster Street, Dublin
A Georgian house from around 1750, this building now contains offices. Maintained in good condition, the interior has a fine staircase and entrance hall.
1969 – Phoenix House, South Leinster Street, Dublin
Architect: John Costello & Associates
Office accommodation from the late 1960s, a rather grim exercise in concrete and projecting windows replacing a number of smaller Victorian commercial premises.
2010 – Dublin Dental Hospital, South Leinster St., Dublin
Architect: McCullough Mulvin Architects
The project takes on five contiguous Protected Structures in central Dublin and converts them to new uses for the Dublin Dental Hospital.
