The Premier Drapery Company was one of the foremost department stores in Palmerston North. This building, designed by L G West and built in 1905 as part of the former Club Hotel complex, was bought by the PDC in 1975, with a view to building a new complex. This building was not demolished but is now connected to the Plaza shopping mall. It is currently occupied by Pumpkin Patch (2009).
