Street Art In Limerick
URBAN EXPRESSION IN LIMERICK 2016 - THE PRE NEW-NORMAL YEARS
Examples of urban expression and street art photographed in Limerick during my 2016 visit to the city. In general I have been somewhat by street art in Limerick even though there can be one or two excellent examples ... maybe I am visiting the wrong parts of the city.
STREET ART AT THE CAHILL MAY ROBERTS SITECAHILL MAY ROBERTS COMPLEX
There are two buildings within the site included on the Record of Protected Structures. The Town Hall, Rutland Street, was built in 1805 and is currently vacant and in a state of serious disrepair. The Granary, Michael Street, is one of the earliest known multiple storey warehouses to be built in Limerick, dating from the late 1700s.
The interior was comprehensively redeveloped in the 1980s, with new offices subject to modernisation in 2015. A further eight buildings on the site are included on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (NIAH). A number of these are vacant and in various stages of dereliction, despite a significant amount of remedial works undertaken by the Council in recent years to preserve their structural stability and architectural integrity.
The site is also host to the former Cahill May Roberts Building, fronting Bank Place, some existing and unused warehousing/workspace buildings at Bogue’s Yard and Watch House Lane. The southeast corner of the site currently includes a surface car park with approximately 100 No. spaces.
