Curzon Street Station is a monumental disused early-Victorian railway station at the junction of Curzon Street, Albert Street and New Canal Street, Eastside.

It was designed by Philip Hardwick in the classical Ionic style and built in ashlar in 1838.

The station is a 3-bay, 3-storey cube whose principal facade features four Ionic columns and a dentilled entablature. The main entrance is through a panelled doorway beneath a glazed tympanum crowned by a sculptural relief of the London & Birmingham Railway coat-of-arms.

Curzon Street Station was the original terminus of the Birmingham-Euston line. The terminus moved to New Street in 1854. However, Curzon Street remained a goods station until it finally closed in 1966.

A plaque affixed to the station commemorates the foundation of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers by George Stephenson at the neighbouring (now-demolished) Queens Hotel in 1847.

The former Geest Banana Warehouse is on Fazeley Street, Eastside.

It was built in red brick in 1840 and features bricked-up segmental wall arches and a rear canopy of modern asbestos sheeting supported by early Victorian iron columns.

The canopy overhangs the Warwick Bar stop-lock at the junction of the Digbeth Branch Canal and the Birmingham and Warwick Canal.

The Gun Barrel Proof House is on Banbury Street, Eastside.

It was established by Act of Parliament in 1813 in order to test and certify firearms and in particular to ensure that gun barrels would not explode when fired.

The original core building has survived as part of a far larger complex.

Designed by John Horton, it is a 2-storey brick structure with a central porch, segmental pediment and ause-de-panier arch. Trophies by William Hollins stand in a broad shallow niche above the door.

The Proof House still tests and certifies firearms and ammunition. It contains a museum which may be visited by appointment only.

They are flanked by Dutch gables with segmental pediments.

The central arch above the main entrance to the Proof House is crowned by a broader segmental pediment with terracotta dressings and a plaque dated 1813.
