Fitzroy Terrace, was a row of six three-storey terrace houses. Three were built in 1855 for Samuel Ramsden. Then in 1864 Ramsden lodged a notice of intention to build a further four houses. The fourth house appears to have been the neighbouring Verona which was Ramsden's family home until its sale in 1887 following his death in 1877. At the time of building the houses Samuel Ramsden was a flour miller, but in 1868 he set up Victoria's first paper mill on the banks of the Yarra, opposite Flinders Street Station. It eventually merged with others to become The Australian Paper Mills Co. Ltd. The houses were all demolished to make way for the Mercy Hospital for Women, which has now been converted to apartments, due for completion in 2009.
