In this photograph, you can see the Custom House lit up with O'Connell Bridge in the foreground. The Custom House is a neoclassical 18th century building located on the north bank of the River Liffey, on Custom House Quay. It was designed by James Gandon to act as the new custom house for Dublin Port. When it was completed in 1791, it cost £200,000 to build — a huge sum at the time. It is beautifully proportioned, with a long classical façade of graceful pavilions, arcades and columns. There is a central dome topped by a 16 foot statue of Commerce and 14 keystones over the doors and windows. These keystones are known as the Riverine Heads because they represent the Atlantic Ocean and the 13 principal rivers of Ireland.
