    It seems to say "arcad" (presumably arcade) on the door, and also on the windows to the right if you get out the image processing software.

    Sharman D. Neill, Belfast ??

    beachcomber australia I'm not sure the window's the right shape for that. About the right number of clocks, though. I was just trawling the Queen's Arcade myself. Edit: On second thoughts (well, glance), I think you may be right. It seems to have the same clock over the door.

    nicely done

    The "Arcade" writing must actually be across the road, not over the door. Neill's is directly opposite the Queen's Arcade.

    is it me or does the river seem high? Also, can anyone verify if the street lanterns on the bridge are the same or have they been replaced with replica's?

    Tammy According to this interesting Dublin street lighting site, the gasoliers were "restored" around 1998-2003 - www.archiseek.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=3968

    this was before the bridge was widened so the lamps on this side may have been changed.

    beachcomber australia Re your note, Walter Osborne's 1889 painting shows a bookseller near the same spot (just a little further to the left where the hand-cart is). See comments here -

    B-59 I see from your street view that the premises is now River Island, the Photo from Grafton Street two or three days of ago was also currently occupied by River Island!!

    The shop to the right, Thornton & Co, has a "Special Attentant for Ladies Body Belts", whatever they were. Thorntons were still in Donegall Place in 1929, but had a very different shopfront. Page 76 of this link. issuu.com/glenravel/docs/snapshots2
