In 1913, plans were submitted by Frederick William Higginbotham for a ‘New picture theatre at Grand Restaurant, for William Kaye, ornamental plasterwork by M. Creedon, Dublin’. Then, in 1917, by the same architect ‘In destroyed area, 1916 - proposed reconstruction.’ The tale of woe isn’t quite complete, as, apparently, plans were submitted by Robinson & Keefe for ‘Reconstruction of part of building and refurbishment after fire of Dec 1933, for Walter McNally’, plans for proposed alterations were also submitted by the same practice in 1946 for alterations. A rather ‘unlucky’ building!
