Number Twenty Nine Fitzwilliam Street was one of ten houses on Fitzwilliam Street Lower and on Mount Street Upper restored by the Electricity Supply Board in 1988. Visit the Number Twenty Nine website at www.esb.ie/numbertwentynine.
The decision to restore these buildings had its historical roots in a commitment by the Board given to Dublin Corporation in 1977 that in return for the Corporation allowing Electricity Supply Board to exceed standard plot ratios in the construction of office blocks facing James Street East and Baggot Street Lower, it would undertake to refurbish these keys houses in its property portfolio.

Since its last occupation for domestic use, in or around 1916, the house had been vacant up until its purchase by the newly formed Electricity Supply Board in 1928. It was then used as offices for the organisation until the late 1980s.
