More about the Building's history...
The building was built in 1864, and was originally known as McBirney's Department Store. It was part of the commercial and industrial growth along Dublin's quays during the 19th century. It was named in honour of John McBirney, who operated the McBirney Brothers wholesale grocery business from this location. The building underwent significant renovation beginning in the late 1990s, and was completed by 1998. This refurbishment was a collaboration led by Gerry Gannon, of Balark Investments and Garrett Kelleher of the Shelbourne Group. This redevelopment modernized the building while preserving its historical architectural elements. The objective of the renovation was to modernise and update interior infrastructure, and to maintain and restore historical features such as the decorative stonework, and large windows, essential to the building’s Victorian character.
