    The building

    Flinders House is a prominent example of 19th-century commercial architecture — a six-story former warehouse on bluestone footings, remodelled in 1870 into an Italian Renaissance Palazzo to the design of architect Charles Webb, with Turnbull & Dick as the builders, for clothing manufacturers Banks Brothers Bell & Co. The building is reported to have been extended upward by Billing & Peck around 1905, and was refurbished into sixty residential apartments in 2000.
