Statement of Significance
The original Mutual Store was established in 1872 and the present building resulted from a major reconstruction in 1891 to a design by the architect Reed Smart and Tappin. The Mutual Store was one of several large variety warehouses in Flinders Street that developed the mail-order business from the earliest dock-side warehouses. A major competitor was the nearby Ball and Welch (the building was designed by the same architects). It is an example of Melbourne's commercial power in the late 19th century.
