CITY IMPROVEMENTS.
The design of Mr Brindley, of Brindley and Stewart, of Manse street and Oamaru, has been accepted for Mr Murphy’s new hotel and premises in Princes street and Moray place. They will bo three storeys high, have a frontage to Princes street of 132 ft, to Moray place 82ft, and be 52ft high, thus forming, from their position, one of the finest and most prominent buildings in the City. The hotel will contain eighty rooms. The style of architecture is Italian, tastefully relieved. The fine three-storeyed building just erected in Princes street by Mr S. Jacobs is a decided ornament to that part of the City. It is three storeys, 45ft high, and is provided with four floors. Tee fancy warehouse in Princes street has a splendid show-room 44ft by 25ft, which was seen to the utmost advantage last night. The second and third floors are to be let as offices. Mr Sanders was the architect, and Messrs Bateman and Stait the contractors.
