SOUTH MELBOURNE PLACE PLAN
EMERALD HILL Emerald Hill is the historic, cultural and creative heart of South Melbourne, and is easily accessible by tram or bus services, yet is currently under-utilised. Its stunning historic buildings and open community spaces provide the perfect location for community and cultural events. Although the South Melbourne Town Hall will be under renovation from mid-2020, the forecourt and surrounding bluestone streets and hidden pocket parks offer unique opportunities and spaces to ensure this area can continue to be activated. Key actions for Emerald Hill focus on hosting cultural and community events, creating fun family-friendly artistic activations and creating inviting open spaces for everyone to enjoy.
