Beautiful spot, to experience the river city scinery.

I think this was taken from the Castle, looking across the river to Vinegar Hill. OSI Map.

A more up-to-date photo (as streetview didn't visit the top of the castle...)

The building on the left, next to a smaller building and then a wall with an arched doorway, then further buildings whose windows match, appears to be what is now "Pa's New and Used Furniture" Streetview

The Battle of Vinegar Hill (Irish: Cath Chnoc Fhíodh na gCaor), was an engagement during the Irish Rebellion of 1798 on 21 June 1798 when over 15,000 British soldiers launched an attack on Vinegar Hill outside Enniscorthy, County Wexford, the largest camp and headquarters of the Wexford United Irish rebels. It marked a turning point in the rebellion, as it was the last attempt by the rebels to hold and defend ground against the British military. The battle was actually fought in two locations: on Vinegar Hill itself and in the streets of nearby Enniscorthy.

I think we should be able to see the red-bricked AIB building below in Slaney Place. The DIA says it was built in 1897-98. NIAH says nope - more like 1902-05

The Hamilton Reach is popular for water sports. It is popular for recreational and competitive sailing. Historically, the Brisbane River had many commercial wharves used for the shipping of goods and passengers. However, with the growth in the size of ships, the increasing residential characters of the suburbs alongside the river, and the need to construct bridges over the river, most commercial shipping is now handled at the Port of Brisbane at the mouth of the Brisbane River and beyond into Moreton Bay through land reclamation. Former commercial wharves and associated on-shore industrial facilities along the Brisbane River are frequently redeveloped into residential and leisure facilities.
