Carver Warehouse Portland Street

A large warehouse, of four storeys besides the cellar, has been built for Mr Carver, in Portland‑street, from designs by Mr Donnison. It is of brick, with stone basement, doorways, window sills, and cornice, and is of plain and substantial construction. The same Architect has another large warehouse in progress for Mr. Berhens, of five storeys and cellar. The first storey is externally of tooled stonework, and has coupled pilasters between the windows, and a dentelled cornice runs below the second floor windows. A stone cornice resting on corbels surmounts the whole. [The Civil Engineer and Architects Journal. January, 1846].
