Founders Heritage Park Pitt & Moore is one of Nelson’s oldest legal firms, and has provided legal services to Nelson residents since 1864. In 1989. Pitt & Moore sponsored the construction of a replica of their offices as they would have appeared in 1879. An original company seal can be found inside the building, as well as a box of cigars on the mantel that would have encouraged anxious clients to make themselves comfortable. While the firm presented an image of luxury and ease to their clients, a book of handwritten letters paints a real picture of the many painstaking hours the clerks laboured hand-writing the firm’s paper-work before the convenience of computers and photocopiers.
