Dublin City Library and Archive - a photo on Flickriver

Dublin City Library and Archive,
139 -144 Pearse Street,
Dublin 2,
Ireland.
The building was reopened in 2003 following a restoration and major refurbishment and new build. The brief called for maintaining the architectural integrity of the original intact main building while redeveloping the rear section to cater for the more functionally demanding uses.

The facade is a symmetrical nine bay composition of Mount Charles sandstone and Ballinasloe limestone with a central breakfront housing its principal features: a portico and fine Venetian window with a triangular pediment above set with an ornately carved cartouche of the City Arms.

The library was originally funded by the Carnegie United Kingdom Trust (this allocated funds donated by Andrew Carnegie 1835 – 1919 a Scottish / American Industrialist, who funded sixty-six libraries in Ireland and approximately 2,500 throughout the World).
Opened 1 April 1909
Architect: C.J. McCarthy.
