Building and heritage

Eden Quay was constructed in the early nineteenth century as part of the Wide Streets Commissioners plan to extend the north quays eastwards from Bachelors Walk to Custom House. As the western limit for seagoing vessels in the city, much of the businesses which occupied the buildings lining it were concerned with maritime commerce, many housing shipping or emigration agencies. Many are now in commercial use. This building varies from others on the terrace in its external detailing, its façade enlivened by render architrave surrounds and a Venetian window.
