WFINNIMOEE has received instruo- , tions from Jacob Lichtscheindl, Esq., to submit to public competition, at his mart, Lambton-quay, Wellington, N.Z., on Friday, 25th January, at 2 o’clock p.m. (unless previously disposed of by private contract) — All that splendid block of buildings, comprising merchant's warehouses, offices, goods sheds, stables, &c., &c., lately in the occupation of Messrs. W. and G. TURNBULL AND CO., and situate in Willisstreet, adjoining the Empire Hotel. This property has a frontage to Willis-street of 60ft. by a depth of 160 ft. to a line ol street about to be reclaimed by the Corporation, thus giving this centrally situated property a frontage to what must become in a short time a main line of traffic, being about one minute’s walk from the wharf. The buildings are in excellent order and preservation, being well and faithfully built of the very best and most durable materials, and comprise large warehouse of two storeys 50ft. x 60ft. on the ground floor, the lower store being 48ft. by 37ft. 6in., with three offices respectively 14ft., by 12ft. 3in., 15ft. Sin. by 12ft. 3in., and 10ft. by 12ft. Sin. ; porch entrance,' 12ft. Sin. by 7ft. 3in., and covered way of 12ft. by 50ft. from Willis-street frontage to back premises and goods sheds. The upper floor is 50ft. by 60ft. The goods sheds abutting on the water frontage are 81ft. in length by 17ft. 2in. The land not built upon affords a large area for further extensive operations. For position, as a business site, it ranks second to none in city. The main line of tramway runs past the Willis-street frontage, which is opposite the great thoroughfare, while its close proximity to the shipping, wharves, Customs, telegraph, and post offices, render it especially valuable as a site for merchants, banking, insurance, and other public companies, clubs, hotels, &c. Having a WATER FRONTAGE to the harbor, aud being part of the laud originally reclaimed by the Provincial Government, when operations are carried, on for further reclaiming, the purchaser of this property will be entitled to considerable compensation, or an increased area of land on the new street. Immediate possession can be given. The TERMS, which are exceedingly easy (a very small sum in cash being required) can be ascertained on application to the Auctioneer, Lambton-quay.
