Highrise Tower Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Very cool find! I found this while browsing The Age. magazine dated February 25, 1876. I did not know Mitchell Louis Westheimer had stables. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 Is anyone able to confirm the address? I can only find that it was located on Milam Street through internet articles. I haven't seen anything in old newspapers or city directories that confirms the supposed Milam Street address. Any help? I did find an awesome drawing of the building though. Amazing!! Real history here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
