Alterations & additions to house in St. Charles Street for Elliott Galt, Esq.
PublicPlans and elevations. Alterations to two-storey house with basement and attic which Maclure originally designed for Simon Leiser in 1910 (see file 111). The water closet in the basement is enlarged and a bathtub is added. On the first floor the den is converted into a bedroom. The opening between the hall and the drawing room is narrowed and a door fitted. The drawing room is then redesignated a sitting room. The veranda off these two rooms is extended, enclosed and altered to a bedroom and bathroom. One of the bedrooms on the second floor is converted into a bathroom. The sleeping balcony, which is above the former veranda and which had been converted into two dressing rooms by a former owner, is turned into a single sun room. A later drawing (AP575, dated 1927) shows a new sun room on the ground floor (location uncertain). Plans of first alteration signed "J E Shenk".
