A TRANSFORMATION SCENE.
The triangle situated in the very heart of the city has lately been receiving a little of the attention from enterprising business men, and is rapidly undergoing a complete change. The latest corner to receive attention has been the frontage of the City Hotel on the High street side. A few days ago this was a good example of the old style of architecture; to-day it stands as a worthy example of an up-to-date business house, and will favourably compare with the best of London shops. Needless to say, Mr Southworth was the, contractor, and the wonderful change he effected in a few days was marvellous.
These fine new premises were opened to-day by Mr Owen, The London Tailor, and from a casual observation we should say there is not a finer tailor's shop in New Zealand, and will be more in harmony with his reputation as our leading tailor.
Every one v.-ho likes good clothes for a little ready money should certainly pay Mr Owen a visit. C 4705
