correction. The burial ground was not the cemetery of the Cathedral. It was just located next to it (and commonly called Cathedral Close, its official title was a very plain Sydney Burial Ground). The original cemetery boudnary is also under the middle of George Street (even in this early photo).

Thanks for the detailed correction. the earlier info came from a few various sources, have never been there...sounds like an interesting spot to see if touristing

Even though it's surrounded by tall buildings now, it's still like a beacon in the city. A lot of people use it as a meeting place, a place to jump off from.

New York Times headline, 2 January 1915: "Woman Taxi Driver Invades Broadway; New York's First Feminine Chauffeur Starts Business on New Year's Day.; Men Rivals are Friendly; She Wears a Leopard-Skin Hat and Stole--Gets Big Tip from Initial Fare." Story says of the rest of her ensemble: Even before it was een that the driver was wearing a skirt, her appearance attracted attention. She wore on her head a huge round hat of leopard skin, and around her neck and over her shoulders the yellow and black spotted pelt of the same animal...She had on a brown skirt that came down just below the tops of her high tan boots, and a brown jacket. Her forearms were lost in black leather gloves." Wilma K. Russey had a chauffeur's license, and was employed as a mechanic by Dalton's Garage at 354 W. 50th St. She's mentioned in this 1997 MA thesis, Kimberly Berry, "The Experience and Expression of Gender among Women Taxi Drivers": www.taxi-library.org/nolady.htm She also turns up in Virginia Scharff, Taking the Wheel: Women and the Coming of the Motor Age (UNM Press 1999): 85.

Nice photo of a woman taxi driver.....

The Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.) 1881-current, January 24, 1915, SECTION SEVEN, Image 74 printed this photo with the caption: "New York has a chauffeuse. She is Wilma K. Russey and she is the first woman to be licensed as a cab driver in the big city. Miss Russey was once an aerial worker in a circus and on the vaudeville circuit. She is thoroughly acquainted with the mechanics of the car and looks after her own maachine. She says she is not going to take tips - a fact which should make her automobile popular." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1915-01-24/ed-1/se...

B-59: Thanks! We will include more information about Russey next time we update the description.

‘Aras Mhic Dhiarmada’ as it was once called

National Library of Ireland on The Commons Well, it’s just across the street from Amiens St. railway station, probably on his way there and saw this alternative mode of transport

Suck Diesel Is Aras Mhic Dhiarmada not still there, referring to the Government offices over the bus station?
