Southside: On the street

Beaconsfield Parade

This might have been Dorcas Street, South Melbourne

Albert Park

Albert Park

South Melbourne Town Hall

Opposite the Town Hall. I love the striped verandahs

and the window boxes.

This stretch of Clarendon Street has got to be one of the most

charming streetscapes in Melbourne.
