Abbey could move to O'Connell Street - Irish Architectural News

The Irish Times

The artistic director of the Abbey Theatre, Mr Ben Barnes, has said it is a "distinct possibility" that the theatre might move to the Carlton Cinema site in O'Connell Street. He said the new road through to Moore Street, which will cut by the side of the site, could potentially give the theatre extensive street frontage. He explained that shops and restaurants would be welcome neighbours, but slot machines would not.
