North Great Georges Street is one of Dublin's best preserved and most interesting streets. Like much of north Dublin it went into decline but in recent years renovation has been in progress. The James Joyce Centre, located about half way up on the right, commemorates the life of author James Joyce though he didn't actually live on North Great Georges St.

A wonderful street, but sad how it went into decline. Today the street is re-acquiring its former fashionable character, though renovating one of these Georgian houses potentially costs millions of euros.
