Princes Buildings, Dale Street, Liverpool
Dating from 1882, by Henry Shelmerdine. Red brick, granite pilasters, and sandstone and terracotta dressings. Pevsner calls it "rather ungainly". The extravagant dormers are certainly awkward.
Built as shops, offices and leather works, the upper floors looked empty at the time of the photo.

Mural, Dale Street
Screening some seriously run-down buildings. The strange yellow object is a lambanana - there is (or possibly was) a public art statue in this form somewhere near here, symbolising the dangers of genetic engineering (!)

Municipal Buildings, Dale Street, Liverpool
Designed by Liverpool Corporation's Surveyor, John Weightman, 1862, and altered in execution by his successor, E.R. Robson, 1867-68. "The aim was to unite the scattered offices of the expanding Corporation". Suitably grand, festooned with columns, pilasters and statues, and a centrepiece to catch the eye - a clocktower and pyramidal spire. Not being able to pin down the style, at the time The Builder described it as "Corinthianesque", not very illuminating. Grade II* listed.
To this day it is in use by Liverpool City Council.
