 * Keep - I would think any street in central Dublin, no less one with Trinity College and the Royal Irish Academy of Music on it, is notable. This street seems to be important in the Irish literary world.  Very noted poet James Stephens wrote "Westland Row" .  An entire book is called "Westland Row" that's a collection of written works from early Trinity College..  Even Oscar Wilde was born on this street.  Westland Row even had a major railroad station named after it, Westland Row Station (renamed Pearse Station in the 1960s).. --Oakshade (talk) 15:56, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Oakshade; we have reams of articles on streets in New York, Washington DC, etc., so any suggestion that a major street in Dublin is not notable is systemic bias. I would also encourage the nominator to expand his rationale beyond "non-notable". Stifle (talk) 18:26, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
