knowsley. This building, Knowsley, occupies the entire block from Queen's Park West to Albion Street, between Chancery Lane and Dundonald Street. It was designed and constructed in 1904 by Taylor Gillies, at a cost of $100,000 for William Gordon Gordon. Gordon resided at Knowsley for many years. It has been recorded that the building might have been so named after the residence of Gordon's friend in Cheshire, Lord Derby.
