Federation Square: Masterpiece Or Publicly-Funded Folly?
Jodie Misiak ~ Project Evaluation (1.011) ~ May 15, 2003 Federation Square: Masterpiece or Publicly-Funded Folly? Federation Square: Source: Trevor Mein Masterpiece… Source: Ken Irwin …or Publicly-Funded Folly? Jodie Misiak May 15, 2003 Project Evaluation (1.011) 1 Jodie Misiak ~ Project Evaluation (1.011) ~ May 15, 2003 Federation Square: Masterpiece or Publicly-Funded Folly? Executive Summary In 1996, the State of Victoria announced its intentions to commemorate the 2001 centennial of the Australian Federation with the construction of Federation Square, a $150 million Australian public space intended to become the cultural heart of Melbourne. The Square would be suspended over an existing commuter railyard and would connect Melbourne’s Central Business District and the Yarra River. Six years and $450 million later, Federation Square is finally complete. Although not finished in time for the centenary celebrations, it is hoped that Federation Square still has the potential to become the civic center and city symbol that was originally intended. The following is an evaluation of the social, political, economic, and cultural aspects of the Federation Square project, both during and after construction. By examining the project from each of these different perspectives, the causes for various failures become clearer and the requirements for future success are more easily understood. At this time, stakeholders are still having trouble fully justifying the significant costs of construction and the overall value of the project is still very much in question. However, it should be remembered that it is only natural for such an innovative project to inspire debate and there is no question that the development has struck a positive chord with many observers.

Federation Square Arhitecture: Lab architecture studio (Aus & UK) with Bates Smart (Aus) Landscape Architecture: Karres en Brands (Netherlands) Melbourne, Australia prepared by Katherine Wimble and Julia Lindgren An evening concert on the Federation Square plaza. Photo credit: Bates Smart In 1996, the Federation Square Management Pty Ltd, the State Government of Victoria, and the City of Melbourne held an international design competition for a new civic square capable of accommodating up to 20,000 people in an open-air amphitheater on a 38,000 m2 (9.4 acre) block to be built above the Jolimont railyards. The site was to support a broad range of civic, cultural and commercial activities, responding to the vitality and openness of daily life. In addition to a number of shops, bars, cafés and restaurants, the site would also house: • The Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) Above: Federation Square • The Ian Potter Centre: National Gallery of Victoria, Australia plan. Image from: www. • The BMW Edge Amphitheatre karresenbrands.nl • Headquarters of the Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) (public television) • Australian Racing Museum and Hall of Fame • National Design Centre • The Melbourne Tourist Information Centre The site was completed in 2002 with a total budget of $440 million, entirely publicly funded. It is colloquially known as “Fed Square.” PAGE 1 | PRECEDENT DESIGN STUDY | ARCH 503 / LARC 504 AUTUMN 2008 City Connector Site Context Federation Square occupies a site roughly the size of an entire city block, bounded by the busy arterial streets Swanston, Flinders, and Russell to the west, north, and east respectively and by the Yarra River to the south.
