I’m thinking very early 1900s, electric trams

Pachmann returned to Dublin for subsequent standard UK/Irish tours during his long career (which lasted until his retirement in the late 1920s). These later concert stops were typically organized around his heavy London performance blocks.These concerts frequently took place at the Antient Concert Rooms on Great Brunswick Street (Pearse Street

Just maybe -
Freemans Journal 29 May 1899
"PIANOFORTE RECITALS BY DE PACHMANN.
Fourteen years have elapsed since Viadimir De Pachmann, the Russian pianist, played to a Dublin audience. That long interval has anything but effaced the memory of him. On the contrary, at the first of the two recitals to be given on the occasion of his present visit, which took place at three o'clock on Saturday afternoon in the Antient Concert Hall . . ."

The DIA puts construction of the building at 1883-85

Lowson were there in 1890. No Wilson, Carswell, or Photo shop.

Lowson gone by 1901, Calvert stockbroking here.

But McCulloch is in Queen's buildings both dates, and I see Charles & Russell photographers in 1901.

I think we are between 1890 and 1901.

The building on the left looks interesting.
I hope somebody can identify it?

philipgmayer The fancy one with the railings? That's the Reform Club itself, I think.
John Spooner said:
Dissolution of partnership clearance sale of Wilson & Carswell advertised first in the Ulster Echo on 3rd February 1881, and the latest I can see is in the Portadown News on 29th May 1886.

Breaking up is hard to do.

Oh, I never knew that!

[Aside] I'm still 'banned' from the NLI website; don't think it is my end, as I have cleared cookies etc, and tried different browsers and mobile phone. Missing marvellous megazoom!

" ... The hospital was extended and the current façade of red brick and terracotta tiles was added, based on the designs of Albert Edward Murray, in 1893.[4] It was renamed the Royal City of Dublin Hospital following a visit by Princess Alexandra in 1900. ..."
