Park Road, Liverpool 8.
Coleman's iconic "Fireproof Depository", after being empty for decades (despite strange looking windows being put in the upper two floors, c2009) is being converted into flats.
Coleman's were established in Overton Street in 1875.
The corner of this building says "Established 1875. Rebuilt 1900".
1900 was presumably when this building was erected, but there had been a similar warehouse on this site before that.
There had been a church on the empty site next door.

Toxteth Tabernacle and the Anglican Cathedral can be seen.
