P. Johnson & Co were engaged to carry out metal works for both the Dock Street frontage and the Exchange Street frontage of this building complex. This included gates, window rails, vent grills. The gate was commissioned as part of the original building design. The gate depicts the wooden keel or prow of a ship gliding through the waves of the sea which give the illusion of rippling and movement. The building stands on reclaimed ground and the area used to be the docklands of Dundee.
