Appraisal
This building makes a notable and positive addition to the streetscape, due to the scale and form of the building. Though now altered to the ground floor, this building is an interesting reminder of the industrial character which was once associated with this part of the city. The building is enhanced by the retention of many interesting features and materials, such as the loading doors and timber windows.
