stop 17 down under

On my way to the city from Campus on the 86 tram, stop 17 in between Johnston st and gertrude st. at 174 Smith street is Collingwood's old Post telegraph and office building that has been converted into a a modern apartment. I noticed the building while I was Half-spacing out on my tram ride to the city and I got really excited and took some pictures of it! It was built in 1892 and designed by John H. Marsden. The building holds many Victorian style architecture features such as a mansareque tower and arches. It is advertised on the web for leasing as a "modern twist on an old classic."
