Commercial style building located on the corner of Queen Street and Water Street, in Charlottetown’s historic commercial area. James Ellis Peake (1797-1860) built the building in 1856 to replace a wooden building that had been on the site. It is located close to the once bustling wharves where merchants shipped their goods to destinations throughout the world.
