Some more interesting images from the Corbis site, this time of Grafton Street and the St. Stephens Green area.
How odd does Grafton Street look with sidewalks.

The second shop from the left is J.M. Barnardo & Sons furriers. You can just about read their sign above their awning. The shop is still there to this day.

What strikes me is so little has changed to the overall environment, the only thing really being the tram lines.

So, it looks like there’s been a taxi rank of some description in that same spot for 140+ years!

It’s depressing that we don’t uphold the same sense of pride in our shopfronts now. I know it’s an argument done to death but it’s really nice seeing all those awnings in place. Hogans is one of the few places in town I can think of that resembles this today.
