Serious Zoning Changes Coming to Your Neighbourhood
West Footscray Inter-& Post-war Residential Precinct
This Precinct illustrates the history of suburban growth in West Footscray through the inter-war and post-war periods. Houses in garden settings represent the goal of homeownership during these periods to average working Australians and newly arrived migrants. The small number of blocks of flats illustrate the reality of post-war housing shortages in West Footscray, and the emergence of different types of home and lifestyles in Melbourne’s suburbs.
