McClintock's Buildings (170 King Street)

In December 1921, cabinetmaker and joiner W.F. McClintock hired local architect and Pukekohe mayor John Routly to build a new store for him on King Street. The completed structure was a two-story brick building located near the intersection of Edinburgh Street. In 1925, it was adjoined to the Lodges Building. McClintock sold the business in 1931 to an apprentice and subdivided the undeveloped land around the store.

The upstairs of the McClintock’s Buildings remains largely unchanged from their original configuration. It consists of three symmetrically placed double hung sash windows, with the two outer windows featuring an arched detailing with a keystone in the centre above the window. The central window is framed by a triangular pediment. Each of the three sets of windows are matching and consist of three small upper panes with three larges panes beneath.
