North Great George's Street (Irish: Sráid Mór Seóirse Thuaidh) is a street on the Northside of Dublin city first laid out in 1766 which connects Parnell Street with Great Denmark Street. It consists of opposing terraces of 4-storey over basement red-brick Georgian townhouses descending on an increasingly steep gradient from Belvedere House which bookends the street from a perpendicular aspect to the North.
All of the original houses on the street as well as several other features are listed on the Record of Protected Structures.[1][2]
