This building is the Central Exchange Building on Grainger Street right in the centre of Newcastle. It was built in 1837 by Richard Grainger. In 1901 a major fire gutted most of the building and it was reconstructed to a design J Oswald and Sons. As part of this, the ground floor became the shop lined Central Arcade, which it remains to the present.
