Docklands was once Melbourne’s largest and busiest port, but by the late 1980s, it had become a derelict industrial wasteland. With inner-city living becoming more popular and Melbourne’s population growing, the Victorian Government saw an opportunity to extend the western edge of Melbourne’s central business district and reconnect the city to its historical waterfront. Development Victoria is managing the development of Melbourne’s Docklands - one of Australia’s largest urban renewal projects under construction. Docklands Includes more than 45 pieces of public art
