16 Cook Street

16 Cook Street, Liverpool was built in 1866 and, together with Oriel Chambers on the city's Water Street, forms the complete work of Peter Ellis. It is a Grade II* Listed Building.

Built two years after the Ellis' Oriel Chambers, it shows a development of his style. It has been suggested that American architect John Root witnessed and was influenced by the construction of both buildings.^{[citation needed]} Root studied in Liverpool at the time of construction.^{[citation needed]}

The building, and Oriel Chambers, featured in the ITV (Granada / Tyne Tees) television programme Grundy's Northern Pride, looking at John Grundy's favourite buildings in the north of England, aired on 9 January 2007.
