    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Your notes suggest building started in 1824, yet photo has a date of 1720, has someone in archives added this date to the glass plate in error?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Paul Vandenberg No those 1720 numbers are the photographer's plate numbers - all very confusing.

    It seems to be a popular point for taking pictures:

    Dublin – Sackville Street (now O'Connell Street) around 1900

    This one I found in a book. The tram tracks are a bit different.

    Surprisingly, the "Gun Powder Office" survived the Rising without being shelled or blown up by its own contents getting too hot. ;-) By 1916 the "Kelly's Fishing Tackle Manufactory" on the lower signage had become "M. Kelly & Sons Fishing Tackle", and was moved up to top billing on the wall, while the Gun Powder Office lettering got smaller and lower-down on the building.

    What a super shot! There is so much going on here you could stare at it for ever and find new things all the time. The jewellers on the corner of Eden Quay "Hopkins and Hopkins late of Law and Sons were there right up to the mid '70's at least. See all the dung on the street (great for roses) and the man pushing the handcart with the milk churn? Brilliant!
