The Distillery

  
 This two block area in the eastern part docklands area is now a home for art galleries, restaurants, theatres and speciality design stores
 John Fahey was reminded of Sheldon's gumby wig


 This truck would have been loaded with whiskey crates bound for the station and the ferries



 Not  just garden sculptures but swivel chairs too

 Sign on the Swedish design store
I wasn't until we left that I suddenly twigged. This would have been the prime supplier of prohibited liquor for the US market during the thirties.  Boardwalk Empire features whiskey from here in the first ep.
