Bourne Warehouse
1887
A fine example of late 19th century commercial architecture, this
warehouse was erected in front of the Andrew Roberson mansion
and housed an auction business selling everything from antique furniture to ships.
WHALE acquired the building in 1975 and sold it to owners who restored it.
“Building the Future of the Best of the Past.”
This plaque is mounted to the side of the Bourne Warehouse on N 2st Street just north of Williams Street.
