Good God or Zod ...all of ye are very close to the locations,

Boardsbud, your a stone's throw away from both 1 & 2, you seem to know the area well.

Euph, yes they are near, can you name them though?

stovelid, whcih street off Benburb st?

Boardsbud

1. must be Doris St then, always mix them up.

Yeh, i know it a bit as well...like Hagar is to D8

Your right on 1, certainly is Doris st, well done!

For 2, just look at those bollards in the background, its the main road and that colourful building further on is beside the local l******.....oops, i maybe said too much

the boss of me

No 3 is Dalcassian Court.?

and no 2 , is it Ropewalk Sq ?

Boardsbud

2. Fitzwilliam St ? I was actually thinking the opposite way, facing Thorncastle St. Thought the new building in the background was the new apts, ah well........

Yes its the new apts beside the library,
Anything Cambridge is behind those streets and Fitzwilliam st is the one so you got that one right!
I'm impressed with your local knowledge, you've been unlucky with the street names on a few occasions. (:

(the boss of me wad sorta close, Ropewalk but not close enough!)

And yes Dalcassian Court it is the boss of me for no.3 !


Just no.4 left now!..Its off Benburb st direction as said, if you walk from Benburb heading towards courts area, you'll see this place on your left.

Wishbone Ash

(Didn't see the pics till now!)

No. 4 is Wood Lane (that's part of the incorporated Law Society) in the background).

gurramok

Sure is Wish, it caught my eye with a sizeable sign saying something like 'this area is being monitored by cctv and blah blah' so decided to snap the lane!

And by co-incidence, I happen to have a pic of that sign!

Gavin "shels"

Where's all the pictures gone?:D

Gaspode

I'm off work sick at the mo, so interest in boards has waned a bit!!
Here's a few though to keep the thread alive.
1. Here's a new twist; which public green space is this?

2. This biulding is on a junction, so I'll accept either street.

3.

4.

Wishbone Ash

1. Mountjoy Square?

3. Gardiner Street?

good Stuff Wishbone, that was quick!

3. Gardiner Street?

'Fraid not.

2 is George's Street Arcade I think so I'd guess Fade Street. 3. is Harcourt Street I think and 4 is in Ballsbridge I think because I think that's Hume House in the background

Is no. 2 the Central Hotel in Exchequer Street?

Gavin "shels"

tricky D

#3 is also mountjoy sq nos 8/9 iirc (Dublin Electrical Wholesalers Ltd is there but the balcony wasn't broken in my day)
also got no #1 (too late obviously) as I have walked that bit, the south entrance 1000s of times, on way to my then flat (no 17) which is in the background tho obscured. Tx for the nostalgia.
#2 maybe on Rathmines Rd/Leinster Rd Junc (/maybe not)
#4 working on it..,. st ignatius ave (and the white van is on GMaps!!)

I'm defo gonna get the camera out this weekend during daylight so should have some nice challenges for y'all next week

Well, Its not the Central Hotel, but you have the street right! IIRC the central is on the northern side of Exchequer St., this building is on the southern side. It is at the corner of Sth. Gt. Georges St. and Exchequer St.

No, see below \/

No. 3 is Mountjoy square, taken from the same spot as Pic 1 I think. The dodgy balcony got my attention

No. 2 No, see above!

No. 4. correct, it is St. Ignatius Avenue. THe Van must be a permanent 'feature' on the road if its in GMaps!

Thats them all so I think, so we look forward to your shots TrickyD, bring em on.
