It seems to be looking east out over St Alphonsus Convent to the sea. About here, I think: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,714802,736883,11,9

The obvious place for an elevated view in the cemetery is the O'Connell round tower. Shadows are being cast right to left, so we are probably looking East-ish. Sure enough, we would see the Botanic Gardens if looking North, and a lot of railway looking South. Even by the time of the 25" map at GeoHive, nearer the end of the possible date range, the only terraced houses are to the east.

Saint Teresa's Road is built, but Saint Teresa's Place is incomplete. The NIAH map is sadly blank in this part of Dublin.

So, before the 1907 survey of the 25" map.

We seem to be missing St Columba's Church, as well.

rush hour... :-) -- Seen on your photo stream. ( ?² )

Your bang on the money, its Fredrick street north, right outside the entrance of the garden of remembrance today. One of the buildings has a distinct archway on the entrance and the wall surface is different to all the others in the row. This building is still the same today. :) maps.google.ie/maps?q=frederick+street+dublin&hl=en&a...

PS. I'm a big fan of the collection. Is this collection displayed anywhere I can view them? and can copies be obtained? I've come across a few buildings that have some significance with my family and it would be nice to have a copy. Thanks. :)

Rihslw alw Excellent! Thanks for that - have amended location on the map...

The Glasnevin Trust has a numbered version available, with some of the names already filled in.

Sharon Corbet That cuts out most of the fun of the shot Sharon but it is interesting how many major players were present!

There are more names available in this Examiner article.

Swordscookie The numbering is helpful, though :-)

Keogh had to have taken the photograph from the roof of the Boland Chapel. Streetview The grave to bottom right is that of William Dargan another nation "builder". James O Dea's photographs are mostly of his work. "St. James’s Brass and Reed Band, Mount Brown, Dublin 8, is by far Ireland’s oldest band. It was established in 1800 but early records trace back as far as 1737."
