Coffee and architecture, restoring my Victorian home built in 1880s

Have decided to delete twitter today May 5, 2024 because of the increasing hateful rhetoric I see on this platform.

Reminder that our planning system protects unused car park ramps at Dublin airport but doesn't squash this immediately. St. Stephen's Green Shopping centre should be on the protected structures list.

@Gilleeece I received this leaflet through my door as well. I refused to read it as I know the content would have upset me greatly. I immediately binned it.

[Dan O'Brien @danobrien20]

The best and most balanced piece I’ve read to date on the asylum fiasco between Dublin and London.

@FionanCoughlan @gavinjdaly I live close to here. Dublin is becoming a depressing place to live. Filthy and increasingly violent. I just want to get out of the place at this point (and I’m a Dub).

[TheIrishAesthete @IrishAesthete]

The Irish Aesthete in today's @IrishTimes: why do we neglect historic buildings of all kinds?

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@orlidegani Fantastic to hear. Wishing you the best of luck

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@MaiaDunphy @IrishRail @EamonRyan The same thing happens on bank holidays in London. It’s the quietest time to get work necessary completed

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@RobertBohan Well done to him. Definitely more of this needed.

[Architecture of Dublin @Archidub1]

One I’ve never seen before with some unusual landmarks noted in 1782

[Architecture of Dublin @Archidub1]

Upper Baggot Street facing towards the junction with Waterloo Road c1905

The Episcopal chapel on the corner (left) has since been demolished and replaced with offices.

@ekg2009 I’m exactly the same, love looking out at the streets and people

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@Luighseach @BarryAndrewsMEP Good to see focus on this. My number one issue as a voter living in inner city Dublin

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@TorsoOfTheWeak I feel the same, ashamed and embarrassed

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@JackKavanagh12 I do like it

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@paul__arbuthnot It’s in the diary! Likewise looking forward to meeting you too!

[Alan James @AlanMulvaney]

@paul__arbuthnot One of my favourite buildings in the city. I used to attend services there when I lived nearby on Wilton Place, 20+ years ago

[Dublin Decoded Tours @dubdecodedtours]

prior to demolition in 1970s (replacement w the Central Bank) Dame St's Commercial Buildings were home to Dublin Chamber of Commerce, and the famed Ouzel Galley Soc!
As we will see on tour tmrw, they also provided pedestrian links through Temple Bar. https://t.co/Qy7Y7TgTAc

@JackKavanagh12 @YIMBYPoland Fantastic to see but only the SE corner of the inner city is like this. Rest of the inner city, like where I live (unfortunately) looks run-down, dirty and increasingly plagued by anti social behaviour
