Scott was also, very late in his career, architect of Trinity College Chapel at the University of Toronto. Nov. 20 will mark the 70th anniversary of the consecration of the chapel, and the College will host the symposium "Sacred Space: Conflicts and Convergences”. I will be one of the speakers.

I was oddly impressed earlier with the symmetry seen today in Gardiner Place, including to a certain extent the overflowing bins placed either side of the archway to Nerney's Court.

If you're in the vicinity of @dculibrary.bsky.social, please pop in to see an exhibition selected from the archive material I've donated. It relates to my first book, The Destruction of Dublin (1985), and the Dublin Crisis Conference I helped to organise in February 1986. A blast from the past!

One of the joys of a walk along the quays in Dublin are the access ladders. I think the Architectural Review did a page on them in the 1980s.
