(Courtesy The Herald Sun) 400 East Pettigrew appears to have been built around 1939-1940 as a two-bay retail space. The building housed a series of tenants over the course of ~40 years, beginning with the Dixie Cab Co., followed by the Congo Restaurant through the 1940s. By the 1950s, the building housed Best Seafood/Lee's Seafood and the Silver Drop Restaurant.
