India Building was built for the Blue Funnel Line between the two world wars. It was completed in 1931 and was heavily damaged in the 1941 blitz. The architects were a local man, Herbert Rowse, who also designed the six tunnel ventilation stations and Arnold Thornley.
The massive building occupies a whole block just east of the Pier Head between Water Street and Brunswick Street.
