There is a tower towards the west end with a flag pole mounted on a tiered base in the Streamlined Moderne mode and porthole motif constituting the key stylistic elements.

City of Port Phillip Heritage Review
City of Port Phillip Heritage Review Place name: Houses Citation No: Other names: - 2409 Address: 110-118 Barkly Street & 2-6 Heritage Precinct: None Blanche Street, St Kilda Heritage Overlay: Recommended Category: Residential: Houses Graded as: Significant Style: Federation/Edwardian Victorian Heritage Register: No Constructed: 1910-1912 Designer: James Downie Amendment: C161 Comment: New citation Significance What is significant? The group of eight houses, including two pairs of semi-detached houses and one detached house at 110- 118 Barkly Street and a terrace of three houses at 2-6 Blanche Street, St Kilda, constructed from 1910 to 1912 by builder James Downie, is significant. The high timber picket fences on each property are not significant. Non-original alterations and additions to the houses and the modern timber carport at 2a Blanche Street are not significant. How is it significant? The houses 110-118 Barkly Street and 2-6 Blanche Street, St Kilda are of local historic, representative and aesthetic significance to the City of Port Phillip. Why is it significant? The group is of historical significance for their association with the residential development of St Kilda after the economic depression of the 1890s. Built between 1910 and 1912, at a time of increased population growth and economic recovery, they are representative of Edwardian-era speculative housing development on the remaining vacant sites in St Kilda. (Criterion A) They are representative examples of Federation/Edwardian housing built as an investment by a single builder using standard designs to ensure the houses could be built efficiently and economically, but with City of Port Phillip Heritage Review Citation No: 2409 variations in detailing to achieve individuality and visual interest and avoid repetition. -

St Kilda Foreshore a Guided Trail Full Page.Pub
THE ST KILDA FORESHORE A GUIDED TRAIL 2 St Kilda foreshore is one of Australia’s most loved places. Many associate it with beach- front leisure, sport, great food, iconic build- ings, open space, music, festivals, gardens and much more. Its popularity is a tribute to the St Kilda Foreshore Committee, which formed in 1906. Under the inspired leader- ship of Carlo Catani, an Italian-born engi- neer, the Trust created a Mediterranean style resort on the foreshore ‘for the recreation, amusement and convenience of the people’. Life on the Edge A century later, however, the St Kilda fore- shore was in danger of being ‘loved to death’. In 2003 the Port Phillip Council ap- proved the St Kilda Foreshore Urban De- sign Framework which identified areas be- tween West Beach and St Kilda Marina that had become neglected, unsafe or inade- quate to cope with vehicle traffic, visitor numbers and changes in recreational pur- suits such as cycling and roller blading or were opportunities for renewal. After exten- sive community consultation, the Council commenced the St Kilda's Edge range of urban renewal programs. 3 Renewal By late 2008 the entrance to St Kilda Pier entrance had been expanded, the Vineyard restaurant upgraded, St Kilda Kiosk and Ca- tani Arch restored and upgrade works at O’Donnell Gardens, Marina Reserve and Catani Gardens completed. A scaled model of the Solar System comprising the Sun and nine planets was created on the foreshore to promote education and the environment. The heavily used promenade between St Kilda pier and Brookes Jetty was compre- hensively upgraded including a striking new boardwalk. -

ACTIVITIES 01/09/2015 (AKA SPRING!) Cheery ‘Hello’s’ to all. At last, the coldest Victorian winter in 26 years has finally said goodbye and quietly crept away, ashamed of his ghastly greyness, as well as his short, cold, wet and windy days and, as for his freezing mornings: BOO! Hooray that he won’t return for nine whole months, yippee, skippee! Now, beautiful Spring has arrived, with her blossoms, buds and thoughts of ‘Springy’ things. Perhaps a good old IOE Spring Clean is in the air! Despite the cold, I would also like to make mention of the joy we have had over these cold months, when staff members have proudly brought in their divinely beautiful new babies for us to coo over. We wish all these families the very best with these little bubs, especially the best of health for them all. AND PS: I think it would be a wonderful idea if the next IOE BBQ was held on a Monday or Tuesday, when I am here. How I love a sausage sizzle! (Just saying, Marcelo!)

SCG Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation
Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation September 2019 spence-consulting.com Spence Consulting 2 Analysis of Victorian Councils Post Amalgamation Analysis by Gavin Mahoney, September 2019 It’s been over 20 years since the historic Victorian Council amalgamations that saw the sacking of 1600 elected Councillors, the elimination of 210 Councils and the creation of 78 new Councils through an amalgamation process with each new entity being governed by State appointed Commissioners. The Borough of Queenscliffe went through the process unchanged and the Rural City of Benalla and the Shire of Mansfield after initially being amalgamated into the Shire of Delatite came into existence in 2002. A new City of Sunbury was proposed to be created from part of the City of Hume after the 2016 Council elections, but this was abandoned by the Victorian Government in October 2015. The amalgamation process and in particular the sacking of a democratically elected Council was referred to by some as revolutionary whilst regarded as a massacre by others. On the sacking of the Melbourne City Council, Cr Tim Costello, Mayor of St Kilda in 1993 said “ I personally think it’s a drastic and savage thing to sack a democratically elected Council. Before any such move is undertaken, there should be questions asked of what the real point of sacking them is”. Whilst Cr Liana Thompson Mayor of Port Melbourne at the time logically observed that “As an immutable principle, local government should be democratic like other forms of government and, therefore the State Government should not be able to dismiss any local Council without a ratepayers’ referendum.
