Transcription of Blue Plaque: JOHANNESBURG CITY HERITAGE ARTS ON MAIN This building began in 1911 as a bonded liquor warehouse for William McBain. Later the front offices were used by the construction company of D.F. Corlett, master-builder and Mayor of Johannesburg from 1931-'32. Arts on Main was redeveloped by Propertuity in 2009 as a pioneering arts centre, combining five consolidated warehouses, and designed by Architects Daffonchio and Associates. It was from here that the Maboneng Precinct spread. The Heritage Portal
