OTHER IDENTIFICATION

Notes:

This structure was built between 1870 and 1884. This property’s contribution lies in its prominent location across from St. James Park, its historic role in the economic intensification of the District and its position within a row of 19th century commercial warehouses. The structure also contributes to the physical character of the District through the attributes that it shares with the other structures in the row and which characterize the commercial warehouse typology within the District, including glazed storefronts with recessed entrances, brickwork (stuccoed) and Italianate architectural features.
