If it is Queen's Road West, the building at the end would be where Queen's Road made a sharp turn, as we can't see it leading off to either side of the building.
One candidate would be the sharp bend at the junction with Wilmer Street. Were there any big buildings near there?
Greetings. The green roof pitch to the right appears to show its front wall recessing slightly to fit with Wilmer - the spot David suggested. Absence of columns on the right side could be due to the area still not yet occupied by building. Regards, Peter
I don't think it's that last leg of QRW as the end faced to the sea, so no big building like the one in this photo.
That building looks taller than the others, so it should have been one of the land marks of the day. There's some writing above its door - sort of visible but not quite clear enough that I can read anything:

If it is Queen's Road West...
Hi There,
Or it could be the last leg of Queen's Road West, just beyond Hill Road where it terminates at Belcher Street at an right angel.

Thanks David
The sign looks like some insurance company from what I can see.
