Description
No. 35 King Street is a warehouse built around 1870, now used as offices. It features red brick with limestone dressings and is designed in the Venetian Gothic Revival style. The building has three storeys and an attic, with a symmetrical front that includes a moulded ashlar plinth. The ground, first, and second floors have five narrow two-centre arches between brick pilasters, which have chamfered edges and crocket capitals. Each arch is adorned with moulded, deeply-set lintels, brick relieving arches, and thin gabled hoodmoulds. There is a moulded attic sill band and an attic storey with a deep cornice supported by fluted brackets, topped with an ashlar parapet featuring square openings.
The central arch, which is wider, has 20th-century double doors, with first- and second-floor warehouse doors above that have chamfered rails and timber panels. To the left of the central arch is a four-panel door with chamfered rails. The outer windows on each floor have weathered cills, with first-floor lintels displaying zigzag moulding and mullion windows that feature top-hung casements. The attic contains an arcade of small semicircular-arched windows arranged in a pattern of 2:2:3:2:2, separated by square piers with crocket capitals, and a hoodmoulding with a heraldic beast above the capitals.
Inside, the structure includes three by two cast-iron columns with flanges supporting heavy timber cross beams, along with a queen-post truss roof. This building was formerly a cork warehouse and is noted for its strong vertical articulation in the loading bays. It may have been designed by Henry Masters or WB Gingell and is recognized as a distinctive example of its type.
