Three figures explain most of it: one warehouse, one river, one evening repeated for years.
The Building
One Warehouse, Two Trades
The building on Reibey Street held milk cans and cream before it held a single card table, built as a dairy company's river store in the years before refrigerated transport.
When the dairy trade moved elsewhere, the warehouse stood mostly empty for a decade, its brick walls the only thing that didn't change.
Coastal Veranda Parlour took the space over and kept the shape of the building almost exactly — seven bays became seven tables.
