J3374 : Buoys, Donegall Street, Belfast
taken 19 years ago, near to Belfast, Co Antrim, Northern Ireland
Buoys, Donegall Street, Belfast
The Art College (in the background, with its covered footbridge across York Street) is being modernised. Perhaps the buoys will be rejuvenated too. The view is from Donegall Street. Continue to J3374 : Buoys, Donegall Street, Belfast (2).
The Buoys, Titanic Quarter, Belfast
The buoys stood outside the Art College, (part of the University of Ulster), at the corner of Donegall Street and York Street. When erected in 1979 they were quite a novelty and included jets of water squirting from below. Time (and various elements of aerosol society) has not treated them well. The jets of water are no more. They were a gift from the Commissioners of Irish Lights.
Subsequently moved to the Titanic Quarter.
