Description
The John Storey Memorial Dispensary is on the corner of Regent and Lee Streets in the inner-city Sydney suburb of Chippendale. The building was completed as in 1926 as a memorial to former New South Wales Premier John Storey. It was built by Sydney Hospital to help the poorer citizens of the area. It is now a methadone clinic. The John Storey Memorial Dispensary is a medieval-styled building with a central tower and crenelated parapets on the tower and down both sides of the building. It has four-centred, or Tudor, arches on the door, doorway and windows. The inscription above the doorway uses Blackletter, or Gothic, script, a script first used in the twelfth century.
