The Denton Hat Mills in Nicholson St (1888) were designed by William Pitt, the architect who also designed the Rialto (1889), the Victoria Brewery (1882, pictured, now the Tribeca Appartments), the Princess Theatre (1886), the old Stock Exchange (1891), the Alderfleet Building (1888, now part of the ANZ), Church St’s Empire Works factory, as well as others, some destroyed. All this I know from the truly excellent website Walking Melbourne by Sean Fishlock where you can find on one page all the buildings built in 1888 — that was the year for building in Melbourne — or all the Victoria St buildings featured.
I hate to be picky, but I think you mean the Olderfleet building. Also the picture isn’t showing for me.
Dear Frank, Olderfleet it is. But what’s wrong with being picky? Picky is great. Edit me mercilessly. Go the hack. I love it. As for the photo, solving your problem is beyond my limited abilities.
