Plan to widen Skinner Row in Dublin by purchasing properties
A letter to the Wide Streets Commissioners proposes an alternate scheme for widening Skinner Row in Dublin. The plan would preserve existing houses, buy specific properties on Cork Hill and Fishamble Street, and lay out a straight 60 foot street to form the north side. It argues the project could save costs, avoid disturbing inhabitants, and benefit Christ Church and the Dean and Chapter.
