Appraisal
Early-nineteenth century commercial building on a key site on the corner of two busy and historic thoroughfares. Despite the fact that the building has lost many of its characteristic elements, it retains its original scale, form and roofline, all of which make a positive contribution to the streetscape and character of this part of the city.
