Anywhere else and the elaborate #VictorianShop on the right would be a stand out, but next to the other big things at the corner of #FitzroyStreetStKilda and Grey Street, and with a huge sign on top, it gets overlooked. The style is very #highvictorian, so prob 1888-1891, other than that I don’t know much. It was a confectioners in the 40s shown in the old postcard – I’m told that by the 70s it was a milk bar, and it’s been a (crappy looking and expensive) convenience store since I’ve known the street from the 90s, so a continuous similar use. Upstairs is for rent right now !
