Drumcondra BridgeBridge · 42 ydExplorer Tom Drumcondra Bridge in County Dublin dates to 1819 and crosses the River Tolka with three elegant arches. The granite is cut beautifully. Get a photo of the V-shaped cutwaters, they’re sharp!
Statue of Our LadyStatue · 53 ydExplorer Tom Statue of Our Lady in Our Lady’s Park was erected in 1954 for the Marian Year. It stands on a limestone pedestal saying 'Ave Maria'. The Virgin is definitely judging your outfit while you take photos here.
Fagan'sPublic house · 107 ydExplorer Tom Fagan's public house on Drumcondra Road is from 1907 and has an Art Nouveau script that’s very confident. Bill Clinton had a pint there in 1998, so it’s got celebrity history. See if the Black Stuff is still flowing inside!
Allied Irish BankBank/financial institution · 126 ydExplorer Tom Allied Irish Bank in County Dublin has an Art-Deco twist! Converted in 1927, it’s got high-quality granite and limestone masonry. Beckett & Harrington designed it to look modern yet traditional. It’s right on Drumcondra Road Lower, so pop in if you’re feeling fancy!
Glenarm HouseHouse · 223 ydExplorer Tom Glenarm House on Glenarm Avenue is a semi-detached house from 1875 with a stucco finish that stands out in the red brick area. It has canted bays and stained-glass middle lights with loose Gothic references, making it look attractive and distinct from its neighbors.
Hollybank HouseHouse · 236 ydExplorer Tom Hollybank House on Glenarm Avenue is stuccoed, which is rare in this red-brick area. Built around 1875, it lost its stained glass but kept the Gothic window references.
gates/railings/walls271 ydExplorer Tom Gates on Drumcondra Road Upper are guarding a university campus like proud little sentinels from 1910. They’ve got half-pilasters and volutes that look fancy. Stand tall next to them for a pic.
Children's playground333 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin is open and ready. I bet the slide is actually a rainbow. Slide down and take a picture of the colors at the bottom!
Tree of Heaven1202 ydExplorer Tom Tree of Heaven in County Dublin is showing off a German photo. It’s feeling cosmopolitan. Ask it if it actually flies or if it just gets very dizzy at the top.
Caucasian zelkova1244 ydExplorer Tom Caucasian Zelkova in County Dublin sounds exotic but looks like a regular street tree. It's probably wondering why we're all so confused about its origins. Pat it gently.
Killing of David ByrneMurder · 1310 ydExplorer Tom Killing of David Byrne in County Dublin is near the Regency Airport Hotel, which sounds very fancy. The death happened close to a main route. Take a pic of the hotel and pretend you’re checking in for good.
Dcu Community GardenGarden · 1695 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this garden.Explorer Tom Dcu Community Garden in County Dublin seems like a place where people grow more than just vegetables. Probably some serious drama happening in those flowerbeds, I’d wager.
