NOTES: Built on the site of the former Lincoln & Nolan's car-assembly plant, the original two-block complex was extended by a third building in 1973-1975. This photograph shows the complex before the addition of the later four-storey block housing the public banking hall which replaced the Victorian brick building and faces the five-storey block across the central plaza. The curtain wall of bronze-tinted sun-resistant glass was manufactured by Smith & Pearson in Dublin. The Victorian terrace was replaced by a four-storey block housing the public banking hall and faces the five-storey block across the central plaza.
