Dagley’s Building, 1925-2019 (Place)

SummaryAlso known as the Dominion Building.

Built in 1925 for draper, mercer and milliner A. Dagley, father of artist Arthur Dagley, it was constructed by Carl/Karl Johansen. The two-storey block used stripped Classical detailing: pilasters, textured plaster, dentilled cornice and quoined window architraves, similar to Johansen’s Royal Arcade. It anchored Tauranga’s 1920s CBD retail streetscape. Demolished in 2019; a modern retail-and-office building now occupies the site.SourcesArabin, Shirley "138 Willow Street"Kean, Fiona "Changing Tauranga CBD" in Tauranga Historical Society Blog, 19 July 2019.Central Tauranga Heritage Study : part one, April 2008 page 54
