The former warehouse of the Tropical Fruit Company is located at Sir John Rogerson's Quay (30-32) in Dublin , Ireland . The building was built in the 1890s and is a listed building. The monument number from Dublin City Council's Record of Protected Structures is number 7548. The warehouse's two striking roof gables face the quays. Two keystones of the building come from the former Carlisle Bridge, as they were too big for today's O'Connell Bridge, which was renovated in 1880. The rescued keystones of the bridge were installed in the warehouse and represent the Atlantic and Anna Livia .
