    74 is the building at the corner of Cathal Brugha Street and O'Connell Street - it has that new volunteering place on the ground floor now, instead of the previous tenants, the money-grabbing spawn of Satan. I think it might be called Findlater House.

    Spot on Spurious, location and name both correct. One of dublin's more ugly buildings imho. Reminds me of my primary school.

    Jebus, well done Victor.

    1. is Huband Bridge to be precise. But I'll give it to you.
    2. Unbelievablely close, you're missing one word!

    3 & 4 spot on.

    Surely you're not going to deny Victor because he left out the 'Upper'? :eek:

    PS - that pic from the side of the NMH is quite popular here. I think it's the 4th time that someone has posted it! :)

    Ye suppose. It was Upper Lad Lane, just at Wilton Tce.


    Wish thought you'd have a shot at 5, considering it's a Dublin 8 "er".

    It reminds me of a building on Dean Street near St Luke's Avenue but I don't think it's it.

    Well since no. 1 is Huband Bridge, I'll guess Huband Road (although it's not in Dublin 8).
