71, 73, 75 Dublin Street, Edinburgh

71, 73, and 75 Dublin Street in Edinburgh are a terraced tenement building designed by Robert Reid and William Sibbald in the early 19th century, with a shop front added in the early 20th century. The building has four storeys and a basement, featuring a four-bay façade constructed from broached ashlar sandstone. It displays V-jointed rustication at the principal floor, with a band course between the basement and principal floor, as well as between the principal floor and the first floor. There are projecting cills on the first, second, and third floors, a part-sheared cornice, and a blocking course at the third floor. The entrance features ashlar steps and platts that oversail the basement.

On the west (principal) elevation, there is a four-panel timber door with glazed upper panels located in a glazed doorpiece in the penultimate bay from the left at the principal floor. To the right, an advanced three-bay shop front includes a cornice and panelled returns, with a recessed glazed door flanked by plate glass windows. There is a window in the remaining bay at the principal floor, and the upper floors exhibit regular fenestration.

The north elevation adjoins another terrace, which is listed separately (37-42 Drummond Place), while the south elevation adjoins another terrace as well, also listed separately (63-69 Dublin Street).

The building predominantly features two-pane timber sash and case windows and has a grey slate M-roof with a rendered ridge stack that is coped and has circular cans. The interiors were not seen in 1997, but there is some evidence of working panelled shutters.

The property is enclosed by ashlar copes topped with cast-iron railings that include some spear-headed balusters and urn finials.
