Last Stand of R&H Hall
It’s not every day you get to capture a piece of Cork’s history before it disappears forever. The R&H Hall building is now gone, and even Google Maps have updated their streetview so this same view of Victoria Road is now quite different.

Last Stand of R&H Hall
It’s not every day you get to capture a piece of Cork’s history before it disappears forever. The R&H Hall building is now gone, and even Google Maps have updated their streetview so this same view of Victoria Road is now quite different.
The R&H Hall grain silo towers, built in 1934 and 1954, stood at 33 metres tall and were visible from many parts of Cork, making them one of the city’s most recognisable industrial landmarks for over 80 years. Hopefully, the new developments going up there will be as impactful.

In 2018, a ship called WISDOM visited Cork. Which is odd because this site says the ship was renamed, “Jasmine Scan”, in 2012. Apparently, it’s now called “WARTHOG” and bears a striking orange colour that’ll be hard to miss.
If you were ever nostalgic for the old R&H Hall building, it’s here too. Must be loads of photos of that place taken by loads of people over the years. I’d love to see some from when it was actually being used.

Kennedy Quay in Cork in February 2024 before the R&H Hall building was demolished. Look to the right, and you'll see Albert Quay and the new buildings there. This whole area will look quite different in only a few years.

R&H Hall as it was
At the start of February, this imposing building still stood on Kennedy Quay but now most of it is a pile of rubble.

On a quiet October morning in 2016, I travelled into town as I saw there was fog forecast, and I wasn’t disappointed. While I was photographing the boats lined up along Kennedy Quay, a single rower came up the river.
He quickly glided past my position along the river, but I grabbed a few photos, including R&H Hall, and a view of the Elysian that is somewhat blocked by further development over in that direction.

When I go back there again some morning in eight years time to photograph the fog, I’m sure the quay will be unrecognisable.

A man and the R&H Hall
As we were photographing the R&H Hall building the other morning, Henry spotted a boat, the Simon Princess, sailing towards us. I thought the boat might pull in on the other side of the river, but no, it stopped just a few metres away.
As it passed slowly, I caught a nice photo of one of the crew looking out, with the R&H Hall building providing a nice background.

The Kennedy Quay Skyline
Kennedy Quay this morning as the sun rose, with R&H Hall in the centre of the image, as this skyline will disappear in the next few months.
Note: the sky has been replaced. It was a very dull, overcast day. Hopefully, this is more pleasing to the eye. The old R&H Hall building has not been replaced, yet.

R&H Hall in Cork City
The R&H Hall building looms over Kennedy Quay as seen from Michael Collins Bridge today. It's going to be demolished this year, so if you want to record "what once was" on the site, get down there soonest!

This Irish Examiner article talks about the demolition, and includes this picture of what will replace it.
A view of the proposed development on Kennedy Quay showing the Rehabilitation Hospital at the junction with Victoria Road, the residential block, the three office buildings, including the new Silo building and the re-purposed Odlums building.
