Note générale
Located on the corner of Wellington and Brock Streets, this corner building was built in 1842 by architect George Browne for William Henry Wilson. The first storey consists of a series of segmental arches supporting the upper floors of the building. During the 1950's alterations were made by filling in the lower portion of the arches with stone and glazing the upper portions. However, in the 1970's the directors of Vicrotia & Grey Trust decided to restore the building to it's original classic appearance by reinstating the arches. Entranceways are recessed and a curved window entirely without glaze now emphasises the rounded corner of the structure. (Information taken from pg.83 of 'Kingston Splendid Heritage' by Mikos)
