Description
60 West Nile Street, built in 1875 by James Boucher, is a four-storey, four-bay commercial building designed in the Free Renaissance style. The ground floor features a shop that extends from the front to the rear and has been converted into a public house. The facade is nearly identical to those on West Nile Street and Nelson Mandela Place. It includes sash and case windows, with the first floor showcasing arched windows with keyblocked detailing and droved spandrels. The second floor is arcaded with granite columns and diapered spandrels, while the third floor is pilastered. There are boldly projecting console-bracketed balconies on the second and third floors, adorned with cast-iron balustrades, and the building is topped with cast-iron parapets. The upper offices on St George's Place feature an Ionic pedimented doorpiece. Inside, the ground floor has a columned interior.
