The convent, owned by the United Sisters of Mercy, was built in 2012. It replaced the former convent, which stood on the site of the landscaped gardens in front of the present building. The old building was demolished the same year because it was too cramped for the nuns' needs. Photograph taken from the promenade on the opposite side of Marine Parade East.
