From pawn shop to University – Construction of the Central Pawnbroker Offices began 120 years ago A huge building on Lónyay Street has stood empty for fifteen years. It has been unused for so long that most passers-by will not even remember its name. Yet for more than a hundred years, it was the centre of trading in pledged goods.
