I`ve no idea Chris, all the area had quite a lot of warehouses so the wide arch could have been the entrance for horse and carts.

Just dicovered this,the National Cash Register had a building between Kent St and Cornwallis St
This is a picture by Hardman showing the ornate floor so it must have been a grand building

My missus worked in Kent Street in the 1980s in a place called City lighting which was the corpy dept for the city's street lighting. Back then, Kent Gardens tenements were facing it on Lydia Ann st and Cornwallis st old sal****er baths building was standing alone. She then moved nearby to Colquitt st college. Al lthis area was desolate back then and when we drove there recently, she couldn't recognise it. They've done well revitalising that area with apartments, bars, cafes and shops.
