SHAKESPEARE TERRACE - Physical Description 1
A prominent location has always been a factor in the significance of this building. The building is constructed on the corner of Tanner Street and Punt Road and forms the termination of Brunton Avenue.
The appearance of the building, as constructed, is impressive. The two central buildings and the end flanking buildings project to form arched colonnades, while the intermediate buildings differ in verandah treatments. The building is sophisticatedly detailed and features polychromatic brickwork. The composition is completed by encaustic verandah tiles, and cast iron fencing.
The end terrace has been defaced, by removal of the verandah and refronting of the building. In general however the terrace maintains a high degree of intactness including garden elements.
