I can barely make out the date on Pall Mall magazine, but it might be July 1905. Or maybe 1906. "The Royal" in his hand, does say July on the cover. Pretty heavy coat for July though. Found a picture of the June 1905 Pall Mall, but I think they all had the same cover design.

Hoot, hoot! The Busiest Boy in Dublin has been identified, just over a year since we put him up here on Flickr...

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyelightfilms] Yep, very happy about the July part of things, the heavy overcoat notwithstanding. He had to sit around a lot, needed to stay warm, and his overcoat and trilby were a trademark according to article on Ask about Ireland...

I think it's the by now infamous baths in Dun Laoghaire, which later became Rainbow Rapids...

There's a picture showing a similar view to the photo above on this page from a local councillor showing the latest proposal for the baths.

OSI Map for reference. The following quote is from the 1936 publication, Dun Laoghaire: The history, scenery and development of the district, prepared in connection with the Town Planning Survey, by Manning Robertson: 'Dun Laoghaire Baths, perfectly situated on the centre of the sea front, contain three pools; the principal pool being 146 feet by 30 feet, the children's pool being 90 feet by 50 feet and a baby's pool of elliptical shape 31 feet by 28 feet. There are 43 men's boxes, 127 ladies' boxes, a tearoom, lounge, laundry and offices. Provision for medical baths include hot water, shower, slipper, needle, seaweed, sulphur, alkaline and Russian (steam) baths. New baths are to be provided in place of the above at Dun Laoghaire at a cost of some £65,000. These will include a large swimming pool 300 yards by 100 yards, sun bathing benches, hot and cold medicinal and ultra violet baths, a large palm lounge for use as for a café, concerts and dances. It is also proposed subsequently to add warm salt water baths for winter use.'

Ha ! My home town...!! memories of many a happy day spent in the baths..... The two funnels are the ferries, Cambria(4) and Hibernia(3) , both served from 1921-1949.

There's a mention in the catalogue notes that it could be the Palme, but I don't think that's right. The Palme was the focus of the 1895 Kingstown Lifeboat Disaster, and according to newspaper reports the masts were cut off when it went aground.
