The smaller lower building next to the bridge was a flour mill run by William Mack in the 1890s specializing in grain, flour meal, bran, and shorts. The larger four-story Stormont Mill can be seen beyond. It manufactured ginghams, shirting, sateen, cottonades, ticking, etc. The defunct Stormont Mill burned to the ground one Hallowe’en night in the 1960s. The concrete pad in the foreground (on the right) was part of the dock at the Customs building at the bottom of Pitt Street.
