Three Quonset (Igloo) type huts are located behind the building facade of 164 Arthur Street, Fortitude Valley. It is
believed these Quonsets were erected here after WW2, probably purchased as cheap WW2 surplus buildings.
Fashion design shop "The Tribune" occupies the middle Quonset building at 164 B Arthur Street.
