South Mall, Cork
South Mall (Irish: An Meall Theas), is one of the main streets of Cork city, Ireland. It runs from Grand Parade in the west to Parnell Place in the east. Like Grand Parade and St. Patrick's Street, it is built over what was once a channel of the River Lee.
The street is one of the main centres of banking and financial services in the area, and also home to a number of legal offices and solicitors.
Among the notable buildings on the street is the branch of AIB. This started on its current site as Provincial Bank in 1825, while the current building was constructed between 1863 and 1865. As the street was once a channel of the river, some original 18th century buildings retain evidence of street-level boat houses, while others are built with bricks that were once used as ballast in visiting vessels.
