The Murray Premises was renovated in 1979 and now contains office suites, restaurants, retail stores and, most recently, a boutique hotel. The buildings once served as a fishery premises, with facilities for drying and packaging fish and warehouses for fish, barrels and other items.

Famous quotes containing the words murray and/or premises:

    Strung out and spotty, you wriggle and sigh
    and kiss all the fellows and make them all die.

    Men have defined the parameters of every subject. All feminist arguments, however radical in intent or consequence, are with or against assertions or premises implicit in the male system, which is made credible or authentic by the power of men to name.
