What you'll see
A white-tiled Art Nouveau office block with turrets on the corner of the old harbour, looking small now beside the towers around it; you see it from outside.
A brief history
Finished in 1898, it was one of Europe's first 'skyscrapers' at about 43 metres, and it survived the 1940 bombing.
