This grand Italianate building housed the Victorian Railways administration back in the days when rail ruled the world. The apartments here were originally offices and, although they vary in size and layout (from studios to two-bedroom apartments), they all have high ceilings and some have balconies. Don't expect anything flash, just comfortable and spacious rooms with plenty of character.
