I STILL KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE ARTIST KNOWN AS ORIEL
I still know nothing the street artist who is now operating under the name Oriel so I will take this opportunity to discuss Upper Ormond Quay.
Upper Ormond Quay is a historic quay located on the north side of the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland. Built around 1800, it is characterised by its granite ashlar construction and is part of a series of continuous quays lining the river. The quay walls are made of ashlar granite blocks with a saddle-back finish and feature iron stays for ladders descending to the water level. It is bounded on the north side by a concrete slab pavement and on the east by Grattan Bridge (formerly Essex Bridge).
Upper Ormond Quay is situated between O'Donovan Rossa Bridge and Grattan Bridge and is significant in the context of Dublin's economic and maritime development as Ireland's principal port.
The bridge that was originally named Essex Bridge, in honour of Arthur Capel (1631-83), first Earl of Essex and Lord Lieutenant of Ireland (appointed 1672), was renamed in honour of Henry Grattan was indeed renamed Grattan Bridge in honour of Henry Grattan, an Irish politician and statesman. The renaming occurred in 1875.
