//**__WILLIAM PITT __** Wiliam Pitt was born on the 5th of June 1855. He worked as a politician and architect in Victoria, Australia. He started architectural practise at the age of twenty four. Though many of his buildings were demolished, still, many of his buidings still remain today. Some of the buildings which William pitt designed are, The Saint Kilda Town Hall, The Princess Theatre, Victoria Brewery, The Old Rialto Building, The Former Bryant and May factory, Old Safe Deposit Building, Sir Charles Hotham Hotel, Olderfleet buildings and the Former Melbourne Stock Exchange. In the year 1887, Pitt won second prize in a design competition for the Federal Coffee Palace. So... Hooray for William Pitt!

__**THE END OF WILLIAM PITT**__ Sadly, William Pitt died on the 25th of May 1918 at Abbotsford, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. I hope that this fine architect and politic will remain in memory in the near future and that his name will always be remembered. //
