This interesting row of houses caught my eye. I know nothing of the history but they do look a bit like converted warehouses. Contributor David Smith's caption informs me they are Kendall's Building, (or the "Improved Industrial Dwellings"), built in 1876 as a part of a plan 'providing commodious and healthy dwellings for the poor classes'.
