Historical Significance: This photograph is taken from Cardigan Street looking NE at the corner of Cardigan and Keppel Streets. It was taken before the construction of the new College buildings started in 1987 and before the round-about was constructed. The main entrance of the 1960 building has been re-built which was done about 1975. The College bought all the buildings from the single story cottage on the left to the right-most house including the laneway between the cottage and the other three houses.
