I think this is the right spot - streetview - goo.gl/maps/q3D8PHUpVhr
Edit: Or maybe a bit further back to include Sir John Gray's statue - goo.gl/maps/KuyKpzxtFhS2

Streetview around O'Connell Street has gone beserk!

In this Thomas Westropp photograph taken from the pillar and dated 18th May 1916, the remaining ruins of the Hibernian bank above have been demolished.
So taken between Mon 24th April and 18th May 1916.
Edit:
Another Westropp from the day before (17th May) showing men within the rubble of the demolished bank. So Pre 17th May 1916

Very somber, the lighting on the walls makes it all the more so.

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyelightfilms] Amazing to have them! Especially like the head-on shot of the G.P.O. Isn't it quite incredible to imagine what it must have felt like to walk down O'Connell Street (Sackville Street as was) through such utter devastation?
