I'm thinking Baggot St too, the school just after the BOI building as you head towards the Canal?

Victor

I don't think it is. http://images.google.ie/images?hl=en&q=mercy%20international%20baggot%20street&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi

Might it be the Bridewell Garda Station.

You know that brass nun , outside that school is about 7ft + tall.. always cant help thinking when I pass her/it , that when they make a "ghostbusters movie" here, that she will come alive as a mega evil ninja nun..

and , no , not near Heuston Station..

Leonards Corner

It is. I'd so demolish that building if I could. The buses have serious problems getting around that corner.

That's always been a problem corner for big vehicles. I have an old photo somewhere of trams having problems negotiating that corner... seems no one learned anything.:mad:

copacetic

the issue with the corner is that it is more than 90 degrees, not sure what could be 'learned' from that, other than not routing buses around the corner or CPO on the building to demolish. Personally I'd be against that.

Less than 90 degrees? (as 90 degrees is a standard right angle).

3. The buildings in the back look like Bridge Street.
4. Bewleys, Grafton Street.
9. College Green - I think I saw that recently.
