Description

These plans for a shop, show room and work room were designed by L. G. West for Messrs Clark and Thompson in 1910. Later plans from 1916 and 1917 show the addition of a warehouse at the rear of the building. Alexander Clark Ltd, a home furnishing business, was founded in 1905 when Alexander Clark moved to Palmerston North. Between 1907 and c.1917 he traded with a partner as Clark & Thompson. The Danish-born architect Ludolph Georg West (1846-1919) established an architectural practice in Palmerston North in about 1880. In 1912 he formed a partnership with his son, Ernest Vilhem West, who continued the business after his father's death.
