In the [[19th Century|19th]] and early [[20th Century|20th]] [[Century|centuries]] warehouses were generally multi-storied [[brick]] [[building]]s located close to a [[canal]] or railway facilities in the middle of [[City|cities]]. Very many such buildings have in recent decades been converted into 'loft [[apartment]]s' or other residential/leisure related uses. Warehouses now tend to be single-story 'big shed' type buildings covering a large area, and located at strategic points on the [[motorway]]/interstate network outside or on the periphery of cities.
