CBA started construction 1915; completed 1916; so, indeed, the vacant block is likely late 1914, early 1915 …

Building on SE cnr Pitt/Moore Sts demolished in ?April/May 1913... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/15419883

I suspect the date is somewhere in the range late 1913-early 1914...the period when construction work on the new Commonwealth Bank building was in abeyance...
Kensington Chambers, the building that occupied the SE cnr of Pitt/Moore Sts was demolished in ca. April-June 1913...it appears to have been mostly demolished at the time of the foundation stone laying ceremony for the new Commonwealth Bank building, which took place on 14th May, 1913. Some excavation work for the new Commonwealth Bank building was completed by October 1913...but due to delays in the tendering process, the building contract wasn't awarded until November 1913 (to Phippard Bros)...the building work proper began in ca. February 1914...the new Commonwealth Bank building was more or less complete by mid 1916...the official opening took place on 22nd August, 1916...

Thanks O Mac for confirming - I've updated the map location. There are a few other Wiltshire images mapped to a similar location - some of which might be candidates for Wiltshire Favourites...

A nice idea National Library of Ireland on The Commons. And an absolutely lovely image to mark the day (it's got kids, it's got nuns, it's got sensitivity, it's got Dublin in the 60s - it's got everything needed for a perfect Wilshire example :) ). To be honest I think this one itself might be my new favourite Wiltshire :) Following close behind is the O'Brien/Sheridan traveller series. But if pushed, I'd have to go with the "busiest boy" image. Below. Not only for the image itself, but the discussion and discoveries that surrounded it:

My favourite is the Travellers -

Sounds stupid to say that I love them all, but I really do. If pushed, Draw! always makes me smile. It's so typical of Elinor's work - a quiet moment captured, while the subject of the photo is completely oblivious that the moment is being captured.
