The 'Joy' predates it by 2 years so! According to Wikipedia: Mountjoy was designed by the British military engineering officer, Captain Joshua Jebb, Royal Engineers and opened in 1850, based on the design of London's Pentonville Prison also designed by Jebb. Originally intended as the first stop for men sentenced to transportation, they would spend a period in separate confinement before being transferred to Spike Island and transported from there to Van Diemen's Land.

How about this for streetview - goo.gl/maps/E4ZkyuDvnjo From the canal bridge on Austin Friars Street. The church in the distance has had extra bits added.

The 'church in the distance' is the old Roman Catholic Cathedral (replaced in the 1930s) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322184 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000317724
