Backing onto the city reach of the Yarra River in the heart of the city, the complex covers two whole city blocks and extends from Swanston Street to Queen Street.

I love that building! Last time I was in Melbourne, my daughter and I took the train from Flinders st to Brighton Beach to photograph the bathing huts. The trains are very different (wider) to the ones I am used anywhere else....of course...no passenger trains in Tasmania.
