The aftermath of the Fenian St tenement collapse of June 1963. Dublin 1963.
Two young boys witness the aftermath of the Fenian Street tenement collapse in Dublin, June 1963. A building has been reduced to rubble, while the adjacent structure stands sheared open, exposing wallpapered rooms and doorways to nowhere. A shop sign for "MANOR DAIRY" is visible on the damaged ground floor. The remaining unstable buildings, home to businesses like "COYNE & SONS" and "LAWLER," are precariously propped up by large wooden beams as a crane begins the clearing operation.
