Commercial Building/Warehouses, 230 Marine Terrace, has cultural heritage significance for the following reasons: The place has social and historic connections with Percy and Co Ltd, fruit and produce merchants, who occupied the site from c1948. The place has historic significance as part of Sealanes, Fremantle's largest provedore of fish and seafood in the 1970s, and an important local employer for many years.
From the street a 1978, two storey retail/office/ warehouse complex is evident.The site potentially contains older and newer buildings which require further identification - includes old houses/shops (art deco and others), old and new warehouses and new retail/office/warehouse complex.
In 1920, this was vacant land. By the early 1950s, Russells Transport had a store on the land owned by R Piercy & Co Pty Ltd. In the 1960s, L V O’Hara ran O.Hara Cereal Milling Company in the store. In 1978, Sealanes made an application to build a warehouse (Fremantle Fish Supply). By this time, Sealanes was Fremantle’s largest fish provedore.
