Location:: 31 South Esplanade, Glenelg South SA, Australia

The parcel of land at 31 South Esplanade originally featured a 9-room house built in 1919 for William and Georgina Dowling. Georgina was a Sunday school teacher and readily gave her services to charity.

When she died in 1930, she bequeathed the house to the University of Adelaide. The university sold the property around 1932 to Solomon Saunders, jeweller, financier, and leader within the Jewish community. Saunders redeveloped the land as the current Art Deco flats, then known as Raleigh.
