    The building

    For most of the twentieth century 82 Flinders Street was the Phoenix Hotel, a pub that drew journalists from the neighbouring Herald & Weekly Times and was for a time owned by the Collingwood footballer turned columnist Lou Richards. The hotel was demolished, and in 2013-14 a residential tower designed by the architecture firm Fender Katsalidis went up on the narrow site: a so-called pencil tower, very slender, holding 28 apartments, one to a floor.
