At 33 Pakenham Street, this is the eastern end of the Fowler building, the main entrance to which was in Henry Street.
The modern addition at the southern (left) end, at no. 35, adds another storey to the original one-storey brick building which provided entry.
There are twenty mailboxes on the exterior of no. 35, including one for the strata company, suggesting apartments. One of them sold in 2020 for $1.2mill.
