  1. 1907

    The Robins Building was built to the design of T. Paterson Ross — four storeys of brick with an unglazed terra cotta surface, a two-part vertical composition with large three-part Chicago-style windows and stylised Corinthian colonnettes on the upper levels. It stood here until the 222 Kearny Street office tower took its place in the mid-1980s.
